Or should I get pollished. Have not seen any Maxima's around with this settup. Only one with 20s crome and OMYGOD tooo big

THANKS

 

Where are you in Florida? I'm in Lake Mary, i'm sure you've been there.

18's are the perfect size rim for the Maxima, but keep in mind with 18's performance usually suffers more. 17's are considered a good balance between performance and looks. A good 18 inch rim in chrome would look very nice on a Maxima, but it will give you a pimp look and take away from the sportiness in my opinion.

If I were you i'd get some nice polished, titanium, or aluminum 18x8's.

 

18x8 is the way to go, if you like chrome knock yourself out, also if you get chrome wheels get some nice ones dont get that giant hubcap stup!d **** looking wheels with teddy bears and little circles on them etc...that totally defeats the purpose of a wheel if thats the case just save your money and get chrome hubcaps.

 

My 18" Chromie Rims

I love em....get alot of compliments. I prefer the baller look to the ricer look any day! LOL!

 

18s for show 17s for performance

 

HAHAHAHA (dont get that giant hubcap stup!d **** looking wheels with teddy bears and little circles on them etc). Ok i wont. I have rims in mind. I am done with the performance aspect since i bought a car to race(92 corrado VR6) i was thinking 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 with 245/40 and 265/40.

Craig Mack: I live here in Oviedo, about 20 min I quess from you.(434/Redbug)

 

very wide rims, will definitely look awesome though. Your MPG will prolly go down - but i guess everything has its price

 

Anything in chrome is too big!

 

LOL!

BTW, your rims look sweet..

 

My sig pic is a 18x8 245/40 18, my current set up is 18x8.5 still 245/40 18 with a 42 offset clears perfectly , I have to update the pics but motivation has gone down the drain due to my broken car that is now fixed

 

here's some crappy pics of my 18's.

they are chrome 18" tsw revo's.

anything chrome is ugly!

 

17inch is way to small for the Max's huge wheel well.....18s are the way to go!!!!

 

Hey those are tight... what brand are they, how much do they cost, do they come in 19's, are u running 40's w those, where did u get them?

 

You tell 'em.

 

I think 18's are good but 19's would be even better.

 

Brand http://www.akuza.com Model: Sublimes
Cost: Alot!!!!! I got them from Discounttire after someone had custom ordered them but didn't like em. I paid rims, tires, lifetime crap, mounting, etc 2k.

Size: 235/40-18 Great handling, no bumpy ride.
Tires: Kumho 712s

 

Chrome is tight, as long as you get a good looking wheel. 18's or 19's is the way to go. (IMO)

 

i like 18" silver rims personally

when you all say performance will suffer with an 18" wheel, what are we talking about? Just gas mileage? Speed?

Also... if I just stick some 17" or 18" wheels on my Max without lowering it, it should look fine, right? Living in Colorado and driving up and down the mountains and in the krap weather, I think having it lowered would be too much of a hassle.

 

Hey Mack Daddy

r those Enkei V1s on your ride they r sweeeeet and also what rear spoiler allowed u to have the dual exhaust, or is it custom made. One of the best looking Maxima's I have seen

peace,

TousDaddy

 

NO 18s and not lowering will give you a jeep cherokee look with all that nasy fenderwell gap. What they mean buy your performance will suffer is it will take more HP to turn a 18 inch wheel vice a 17 or 16 specially if you get a heavy 18 like the one in my sig. I still have 18s but went with a 16.1Lb wheel to get a little of my power back besides it was time for a new wheel. Also your gas mileage and braking distance may suffer a bit when you are decelarating!!!keep that in mind when you think of purcasing a heavy wheel, accelaration, gas mileage and breaking those are the ones that suffer when getting heavy wheels.

 

if you like it go for it it dont matter what I like just make yourself happy . Heed my words do this all aspects of tyour life make yourself happy, dude trust me you will have less "I wish I hadof's in your life.
