I have to honestly say that ride in the youtube video is SICK!!!! That is the inital rim setup that I wanted to go with, but those even in 20" set was over $4700 smackers!!! They are a three piece forged rim with sick lines and so clean!!! Oh well I can still dream ahhhhhhhhhh then I just go back into the garage and look at my sweet rims all cleaned up sitting in their boxes just waiting for the sun to come back out in the spring time.......

DAT IS TRUE 4700 SMACKERS IS ALOT OF MONEY BUT 22'S ARE WORTH THE MONEY. HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A 09 WITH 22'S THEY LOOK VERY NICE THERE IS NO LOWERING NEEDED, THATS WHY I DECIDED TO GO WITH FORGED 2 PIECE WHEEL, I'M TOLD IT WILL LOOK ALOT BETTER THAN DE ONE IN YOUTUBE, THEY WILL HAVE MORE LEAP IN THE REAR AND FRONT AS WELL CANT WAIT TILL MONDAY OR TUESDAY OF THIS UPCOMING WEEK..........I THINK I GOT A GOOD DEAL ON MY WHEELS COMPARING WITH THE ONLINE PRICE 2K BELOW PRICE IN MY LOCAL SHOP, AND I WENT TO SEVERAL WEBSITES, SOME OF THEM HAD SAME RIMS FOR OVER 8K SO PAYING 6K AND CHANGE NOT BAD.......

I like that setup too, but man I could not see myself forking out that much dough....but the way I see it is if you got the cash get it and if you got it FLAUNT it!!! I would have loved to sport some 22's but I had to settle for the 20" version and I love it BABY!!!

22" look great on the 7th gen 20" seem a bit too small. Are there springs out yet for the 7th gen maxima?

I just purchased an 09 prem+tech - in winter frost and was considering adding these ($369 each)... I don't have a huge budget left after purchasing the car so I was just looking for a nice 20" rim to replace the factory 18" ones (which I really don't like). Has anyone had any experience with this brand? Thanks for any input.

Please excuse the poor photoshopping...it was just a quickie to see what they might look like. I could not find a winter frost one in the right angle so I used a pic of silver one.

Those rims look ok, there just not for me, I think they kind of look like a stock set of rims? I mean if your going to go aftermarket then you might as well get something that does not look like it came from the factory in my opinion especially if your going to fork out $1200 plus just for rims.

But at the end of the day it truly is what you like.......I am sure there are people that don't like the rim choice that I made for my MAX but I love them and that's all that matters!!! SO get to modifying your sweet MAX!!!!

That's kind of what I was shooting for...something that looks good but also blending in such a way that it looks like they could of come from the factory that way. Have any idea what the stock 18' rims and tires would go for (going to sell them to help buy the new ones).

but if your gonna go with that look atleast try to get the 20's, I agree with the rims looking factory/stock and that's not a problem, 18's are cheaper but I think the 20's will definately make people horny

Oh-sorry I should of said those were 20's... I am with you on that. I was planning on selling the stock 18's to get those in a 20 inch size.

Just because you have 22's doesn't mean you won't need to lower it, the gap will still be there. You'll see once you get your wheels on. But to each his own...

And as Torgus so kindly mentioned, why are you yelling?

You aint neva lied pard! It still amazes me why people think bigger wheels will change the gap. They don't seem to understand the bigger the wheel the lower profile the tire will be--meaning the overall circumfrence will remain the same--meaning the wheel gap will remain the same...
245/45/18 = 245/40/19 = 245/35/20 almost equals 245/30/22 (slightly larger)

Correct, I've had mine on for well over a year and use to look at different brands of OZ's for more then 2 years before. Best thing I like about mine are they only weight 19.5Ibs!!!

Another thing to consider if getting bigger and potentially heavier rims/wheels...

Those wheels are Trash. cheaply made. Look up Fuzion wheels, still cheap and look fairly good. But I'm going to say no to Zinik wheels. 1 layer of chrome, Uh thats bad... And center caps are a nono in my book, made of plastic and easy to break.

I totally agree with perkman87, I refuse to get rims that have a plastic center cap. I have had bad experiences with this setup, I owned as set of Giovanni Rims and one of the plastic center caps broke, and when I went to get it replaced that style was phased out and I could not get it replaced. So I rolled around forever without a cap and it drove me nuts. Stay away in my opinion!!!

Thanks for the compliments Boomer Sooner, I have tinted the front windows, here in MO they only allow you to have tint on the front at 32% and every other window as dark as you want, so the back two windows and rear are at 5%.
