HIS & HERS NEW SHOES! Altima 15’s & Maxima 18’s w/Springs!

I bought my wife some 15” x 6.5” ADR Nengan Silver w/a polished lip wheels I bought them off of Ebay in a buy-it-now auction for $252.00 for the set.



http://www.rankmyride.com/data//e/8/...rswheels_2.jpg

and for my Maxima I bought some Hyper Silver 18” x 7.5” IKON 057 Wheels w/FEDERAL SUPER STREET 595 225/40ZR18 Tires from

http://bestwheel.com/

for $799.00, plus $100.00 S&H, plus $30.00 mounting and balancing for a total of $929.00 shipped if you call ask for Louis and tell him William sent you

This rim and tire package weigh 45lbs each my Verdicts weighed 40lbs so I “gained” 5lbs.

me and my local mechanic installed my Max Speed 1.5” lowering springs also.
It’s been raining for three days straight around here...

it took us two hours to install the springs

Max Speed Springs on my “old”17’s

Looking great Will, your sure to rack up a few more trophies. I really like the way those wheels look on the car. I may have to get some of those....hopefully sometime in the not to distant future
like everyone else said, loose the gas tank thing.

William, the rims are much much better than the played out Verdicts and look great on your car. I agree with everyone else that the car would look better without the gas lid thing.

Those side mirrors HAVE to go. They look really out of place on anything with more than 2 wheels.

If your going to put that gas door on, at least mold the whole thing to the car and make it at least functional. or is it?

Rims look great BTW

Nice wheels. They do look better than the Verdicts, not only that, looks better with a drop as well. That cap looks horrid and still a hater of the Trenz, but the calipers are badass.

Sweet wheels, far better than the played out verdicts. Lose the trenz grille and gas cap, and stick on a body colored 97-99 SE grille.
