Sick, if those are ZIEX 512s they are supposed to protect your rims from curb damage, I dunno if they work though.

Lol....guess you haven't seen to many s-chassis wheel fitments, or V-dubs for that matter. His setup isn't even that aggressive...

Very nice, I'm doing the same for my fourth gen soon, be on the lookout

Guess owning an s13 before my maxi really took its toll

i love those wheels to death, i've been wanting them for sooo long. I just wish they were fully gold and not polished on the lip. It still looks great none-the-less.
are you selling your old "drag" wheel set-up? i might be interested..

looks good. IMO, i think you should drop it LOW on some type of coilovers or something... I think it'll pull off that whole look your going for, for those wheels

Looks familiar lol. VERY nice. Did you roll your fenders yet? I did a slight pull on mine but I haven't taken updated pics yet. BTW, here is my new ride on 27's:

edit: just saw your sig. Did you roll your fenders yourself or have a shop do it?

I have no problem with that, there was plenty of constructive criticism

Just the one comment bothered me a bit, but whatever, not all of us where breast fed

TO EVERYONE:

The Maxima community is pretty much not exposed to VIP style. To read more about it go to www.vipstylecars.com and check the forums.

My car isn't on stock suspension, if it was it'd be REALLY high - It's on Ksports right now, the reason why it looks high is because the tire profile is smaller than my 19" tires.

I'm going to dump the car and camber out the front. You'll see soon enough how it turns out.

I appreciate the comments - VIP style isn't for everyone.

IMO, if you are going to do that look you need to do it all the way. I don't like the way it looks right now, but if you slam it with a good deal of negative camber I think that would help the look you are going for.
