Pick up the sponsorship and convice the company to make wider wheels. 7" and 7.5" wide just doesn't work very well on the maxima. Not everyone drives Civic or Integra... If companies haven't notice, the import trend is moving toward more bigger/ more expensive cars. The honda tuning trend is yesterday's news. People are trading in their civics for bigger and better cars. The cars that are winning best of shows are Benz, Bimmers, WRX, NSX..etc.

see i need the 7.5's.. as low as i sit, if i had meatier tires in the rear it would sit on them.. in the front it wouldnt be as bad, but rears if i went to 8.5 it wouldnt sit as low, 8's might work, but my wheels are already being made.

tony- i like those wheels, but they are kind of plain and you can't polish the lip

They arent chromies anyway. They are in the same boat as Racing hart CP-035r's. I think they will look really really really ridiculously good. All the doubters will see.

Where can I take a look at a large selection of centerline wheels. One of my friends works at one of their warehouses but he told me to just look online and tell him what i want. He'll get them to me 50% off. What's centerline's official site?

www.centerlinewheels.com

they aren't mainly a wheel company, and you won't find many car wheels, because they don't market it.

and %50 off, good luck, I have a distributor who deals with them on a day to day basis, and he can't get 50% off.. good luck.

I like those rims alot even tho most people bash them. I think I'm going to sell my 20's and get me a set of those. I love the 20's, but too much attention. I like how my 20x9's fill up the wheel well. I don't like to street race, so weight doesn't matter, but if I was going to change rims I would def get the polished rpms. Bigsalder you wanna trade? j/k I still haven't made up my mind. check out my homepage

the 19" rpm's weigh 15 lbs. no other 19" rim can claim that. so talking bad about them is just dumb

my 18" polished rpm's will arive on tuesday, they are only 14 lbs. i'm guessing i can shave 3/10's off my 1/4 time if i can overcome the massive wheelspin that will most likely occur

How about 19x10" ? Hmm, how to make them fit under the wheel wells. Guess the fenders will just have to be bigger
