looks good

gold on your maxima is more noticeable than silver is.

ThurzNite May 5, 2007 11:18 PM

I like the one in your sig.

I like them both in different ways. Also you had a different grill and corner lights as complements. I like how the gold ones kinda stand out more.

Apparition May 8, 2007 02:53 PM

Wow, bandwagon wheel of the century.. But, it's no wonder consider the massive lip for almost nothing $ wise.

Lordrandall May 8, 2007 11:19 PM

The Zeros look better. ;)

MorpheusZero May 9, 2007 02:46 AM

Well, IMO they look great besides the color choice. But I'm afraid to ask how much they weigh...

Just under 20lbs per wheel (- tire) depending on lip IIRC.

They're right at 45lbs wheel and tire for an 18 x 7.5 set of 962's. Looking at some other figures on the drift forums, its seems that the 18's range from 20-22lbs and the 17's form 18-20lbs.

I guess so. I didnt even realize they were a bandwagon wheel. I rarely if ever check any forums other than 3rd gen ones so Sportmax was completely new to me. My brother knew I was looking for some new/different wheels and talked me into these, plus they are very inexpensive like you said.

Although, looking back, Subzero's were an even bigger bandwagon wheel, I just happened to be one of the first on that bandwagon :p

There's no way they're that heavy. They feel marginally heavier than my Subzero's, but not hardly.

Anyways, the gold wheels in the pictures are actually off of the car and getting sold to a Sentra Spec V guy tomorrow. Since the car parks at my mom's house, she threw an absolute fit about the color choice (ie attracting crime/theft). So, I agreed to go with a less 'loud' color, and as of tonight I'm rolling on 18" gunmetal 962's :cool:

Apparition May 9, 2007 09:29 PM

^^^ Not bandwagon here haha.. They're the biggest low budget drift wheel of the century. I see them on every 240 in sight it seems here..

He know's I'm pulling his chain.

Currently I live halfway in between Milpas and State. Eventually I'll probably move to Goleta (hopefully not IV though) as I'll be going to UCSB.

Where'd you grow up?

Off Hollister Ave. across the street from San Marcos HS. We're up there about once a month. My wife went to UCSB, so did my brother in-law and my brother is there now. Good luck!

Stwodahorty May 12, 2007 02:31 PM

hey i have a question, is the middle piece, suppose to be tucked in towards the top, or is it suppose to be flat on bottom and screwed in?

James92SE May 13, 2007 12:21 AM

Not sure what you're talking about. I think you may be asking about the Stillen front lip (ie does it sit on top of the bottom bumper ledge or go up from underneath). I used to always wonder the same thing. I dont remember how mine used to be, but now I have it mounted to the bottom of the intercooler

Wow much better in gunmetal. Your 3rd gen looks sick. I see that kit every so often but it seems like they are in really bad condition. Yours looks really taken care of.

Cliff Clavin May 13, 2007 07:49 AM

I also like those much better in gunmetal. You car sure looks great, James.

It makes me want to mod mine some more. I haven't really touched it in over a year. :(
