I'm getting rims for my maxima.
Which ones?

Racing Hart T6
<img src="http://www.geocities.com/breaux124/racinghartt6.jpg"><br>
Volk Racing Daytona Speed
<img src="http://www.geocities.com/breaux124/pdaytona.jpg"><br>

I know they are nearly the same, but which would be better?
What are some good places to get high end rims?
Any comments and suggestions would help.

I don't think they make the T6 anymore. They replaced it with something similar called D6000. Both look hot. You can get the RH D6000 for $252 per 18 rim on groupbuycenter.com. How much will the volks cost?

Nice try, but I'm looking for 17s
And I don't think the bronze color would look right on a dark green maxima. But thanks for the offer. Why not put them on ebay with a reserve price? Then you have nothing to loose. Try to market them towards the Honda, Acura people...you'll get more bids then.

Fromt the choices that you gave I would get the Volks, they look pretty damn cool. Just my 2 cents.

They do look alike but I like the finish on the bottom one a little better. That could just be the pic though.

The volks look better IMO, more refined looking. Elegant yet it has a wild side.

Go with the volks. Just wondering, but do those racing harts come in a 5 lug format?

I'm going to go with the Volk Wheels, If they have them in a darker finish I might go with that, or have them powdercoated.

Here is a good place that has the GT8 wheels

Jeez I want those wheels so bad... They would look awesome on my beige Max too. I'm not going to insult you with what I could afford to pay though. Sigh... maybe I'll take out another loan.

I should be ordering the D6000's in about a week. Wish they came in 19", but the 18"s will work I guess. I used to want the T6, but it looks a little plain, the D6000 is similar, but more stylish. The Volks will be a lot more expensive than the T6's. The Racing Harts are the Evolution line so it's pretty cheap, I think the 17"s are on sale for like $210 per rim right now somewhere. The Volks are like $500 per rim in 17", I'm not sure where I found that price.

Volks for sure

I know they look the same, but thats all.

The Volk wheel is lighter and stronger.

No comparison.

If you can afford it, get the Volks.

How about TE37?
