Maxima rims

The 04 Maxima rims for sure in my opinion. How low is that car? I am lowering mine 1.4 inces all around. Don't know if I can get away with 18's without fender rub.

Just thought I'd tell ya that S-Techs are gonna drop your car more than 1.4" all around.

On my last set of 18's they were 7.5" wide with a +42 offset.
New set is 8" wide with a +37 offset. Remember this is on a 4th gen not 5th like yours.

Agreed with the majority here - 04 Maxima rims. They just look more aggressive.

between those 2 stick with the maxima wheels, the suv wheels look gross and truckish. but IMO sell both sets and get better wheels...

with that "drop" you'll still have a bunch of fender gap, so you dont have anything to worry about any rubbing issues...

He's talking about the front lip. The OP is probably going to keep it unpainted since he has black bumper lights now and might AE his headlights/corners.
