Cdg2125 Sep 19, 2006 07:05 PM

Your car is so clean. I love it.

Black Maxima Sep 19, 2006 07:08 PM

Thank you, thank you!

vsamoylov Sep 19, 2006 07:43 PM

i can go lower if i want also lol. but look you get out of the driveway and then you find some grass to park in. did you have trouble getting out of there too? lol just messing with you.
by the way do people honk at you all the time? people do it to me when i go sideways.

OC guy Sep 19, 2006 07:56 PM

what size of rims are those and what kind
look nice how much u paid.... do they make them in 17"?

I can go lower if I want too. I just need some negative camber. My tires don't rub that much on turns right now. I can get out of my driveway easily. I have two entrances/exits. The other one is less of an angle and I can go out forwards. The one in the pictures above I can only go in reverse out of. But I need to make an angle going in reverse too because my rear skirt will scrape bad. It was real bouncy on the grass and got out fine, just took my time. People don't honk at me they look at me like WTF are you doing, cut me off, or almost let me get a 97-99 trunk conversion. There is this one driveway at Stop and Shop at a traffic light. Everyone cuts me off when I'm going straight. They think I'm turning left and letting them go. I don't know...It happens all the time. Sideways does help!!!!!!!!!!!!

They are 18" x 8" TSW Vortexs. I paid $840 for wheels and tires. They were used but basically brand new. I think they do come in 17", but they will be too small for a 2001 Maxima. Check eBay or Town Fair Tire.

Looking hella good man.

VIP Maxima Sep 19, 2006 10:18 PM

lol silly, anyone with a lip and stock suspension wont get out like that. try exiting my driveway. I scrape at ANY angle I take.............

WhiteMaxima9600 Sep 19, 2006 10:48 PM

Man I love a clean dropped max, and black is a great color.. Can't wait to get my s-tech's on this weekend! Great job on the car man!

ChromeSE5 Sep 19, 2006 10:54 PM

you CT guys and always braggin about your lowness lol. I wish i oculd go that low...

Iron Scimitar Sep 20, 2006 06:25 AM

Slammed car = 0 pity.

Black Maxima Sep 20, 2006 07:17 AM

I need my 17" x 7" wheels back to go lower. How quickly will negative camber chew up tires?

M1RAG3 Sep 20, 2006 07:31 AM

low = ftw.

lower = ftw-er

lol

looks good man...I cant exit my driveway straight-on either booo

jxkim Sep 20, 2006 07:41 AM


lol

Stalldaworld Sep 20, 2006 10:26 AM

Not much, excessive toe will be worse. Just max those camber plates out and have fun.

hybridioN Sep 20, 2006 10:33 AM

it's a joke.

nice car, as usual...

I told my girlfriend I was choppen 18" Bladez, but she didn't get it. I have a sit down tractor to use anyway. HEHE

Yup, the orange corners looked too much like Halloween and my friends didn't like them. I want to go to the TurnPike this weekend.

Now I have a project for this weekend!!! I'll be low again. I will still keep an eye on the tires though.

Black Maxima Sep 20, 2006 11:42 AM

Good idea...

ColdSHO Sep 20, 2006 03:10 PM

i hate having to admit someones lower than me, but i havent scraped once since i put my lip on. either im driving better or im just lucky.

btw, how ma ny axels/cvs/steering racks have u gone thru?

Black Maxima Sep 20, 2006 03:55 PM

I haven't replaced any components yet. I lowered my car a little over a year ago. I did get some new stuff like ball joints and stuff about two years ago.

1FSTMAX Sep 20, 2006 05:45 PM

nice lawn mower... too low for comfort...

i just raised mine up.. no more slammed look..

Black Maxima Sep 20, 2006 05:50 PM

I, beleive it or not, don't have many problems with my car being that low as far as bottoming out and stuff.

95_Maxima_5spd Sep 20, 2006 06:19 PM

that's one of my fav 4th gens.....ever! its soooo clean and simple, yet....hmm i cant explain but it looks awesome man!

I'm guessing you have some nice and smooth roads there. Around here, I'm scared to even go down an inch. Potholes and everything are pretty brutal.
Btw, nice picture story. I was scared for you for a second... wait, no I wasn't. :buttshex:

ethnic6 Sep 20, 2006 09:18 PM

do u have a side skirt, doesn't look like it to me... either that or I'm just blind... but anyways, its a great lookin max love the rims, don't see any of those around.

Black Maxima Sep 21, 2006 03:55 AM

I do have side skirts.

Cuz you live in CT where potholes aren't a problem and the streets are paved w/ gold.

Your signature isn't large enough.

Caracicatriz Sep 21, 2006 12:27 PM

I scrape all the time with no lip. I'm just waiting for the day my bumper falls off so that I have an excuse to buy a new one and have my whole car painted.

Black Maxima Sep 21, 2006 01:05 PM

Riiiiiiiiiiiight...
