nice fit with the car...you can tell they are not stock, but they don't scream "hey look I got me some rims". Good choice

Really nice wheels. I like how the center sinks inward. You just might want to stay away from curbs, the spokes stick out a little pass your tires.

Yup that is correct. Middle East spec maxima. Even the 2004 still looks almost exactly the same and still has the VQ30 engine. It is not a misprint that is what engine I have. If you want to see pics I can show you. My car is a 2003 as well. I would love to have the VQ35 but that is only available in the altima, pathfinder, and 350Z here.

The point was that IMO the best aftermarket rims are the ones that flow well with the car and don't becoem the focus of the car. I just see alot of cars that scream "look at me. I bought some rims!".

That's funny. You get the 5spd...but not the 3.5.

Why the F... would they put the VQ35 in the Alti and not the Max?

Anyway, I love the wheels. IMO 19s look perfect on our cars. How is the ride and what suspension are you running?

ride is ok as the wheels are quite heavy and acceleration is noticeably down. TO tell you the truth the roads here are perfect and I don't notice any difference from stock as far as roughness goes. I have H&R springs with stock shocks for now. IT seems to work fine.

Generally, I'm an opponent of big wheels, but I have to say I think yours look really nice. As I30tMikeD says, it doesn't look over-the-top like most after market wheels do.

Very clean look. I really like them. Mike and I are on the same page on rims- understated is classy, and less is more. Nice choice...

The A33 seems quite popular in the middle east. I noticed a while back that the Iraqi police force use the 00 and up Nissan Cefiro/ Maxima/ I30 for their cars.
