Magazine pics of this wheel look really interesting but I am wondering if anyone actually has them on a Maxima. If so a pic would be appreciated. Has anyone seen the Tantrum in ANY way shape or form, and wuddya think about it on a 2000 Maxima??????




Thanks

http://wwwcsif.cs.ucdavis.edu/~chin/jane/ click here to see the Tantrums on a 97. I've Photoshopped it on my 2K and it looks very nice.

couldn't really say... but they should be less in price... havn't heard anyone complain that they are of cheap quality, I think its more of them not having the original design and ripping of the Japanese Market

thanks again..if you ever have some time, I would love to also see a foto-shop of the konig ZIEGE,,,,,,,it's new for 2000 on their website. I think it might be a toss up for me between the Ziege and the Tantrum.
would you believe that in German..Ziege means GOAT

hah!

Hold up!!! First of all, All of you guys are >>

wrong. My friend is a distributor for the 5-Zigen, and 5-Zigen doesn't make GT-8 wheels. They are some cheap copied rims that Discount tire store put 5-Zigen logos on them. Real 5-Zigen rims have 5-Zigen logo inside the wheels. The GT-8 don't have the logo.

Tantrums are a copy of Advan Model 7's or something like that. Not the GT-8's.

I've never imagined a 5th gen kit on a 4th gen. You opened my eyes Cheston. hehe

Why don't you try putting it on your "moving salad bar?"

you know, that rear piece looks better than the stillen 4th gen kit... hmm... *mwuahahah*

i might ask the engineering dept here at school to hook me up with carbon fiber/fiberglass molding materials, i know the president of SAE here at school, and she's got the hookups with the machinists at the labs... so.. maybe i'll be getting some spiffy CF stuff soon... well atleast me making it myself.
