@wirelessdude04 is your car named Lindsay Lohan?? That's tight if so, lol

Car looking good mayne

 

Yea my friend named it that thought it would be cool as a sticker lol

 

thanks wireless for answering all my Q's, your car looks great. I maaaaaaaaay be getting tires Thursday if everything goes well with my flywheel/clutch and can actually contribute to this thread.

 

No problem man. What did you go with? im on my second set of tires in the last two months. Went for smaller tires in the rear smh now my coils are maxed out

 

18x9.5 +20 Rota Grids in Hyper Black. should be slightly less poke than your setup.


What is ur tire size up front? It's hard to go off random pics on the web because xxx tire brand's 215/40 can be bigger than xxx tire brand's 215/40

 

One before i go to bed

 

Tires stretch Differnetly.

Federal, nitto, Dunlop, general, nankang all stretch easy

Bridgestone, michellein don't stretch as easy

 

your doing +20 all around are you on coils? Wheel might not clear the front strut without spacers

 

yeah. I'm on BC coils. It looks there to be pleeeeenty of room to go wider on my current setup.

 

Running 18x9.5 et30 front and rear (with 5mm spacers in the rear) on over-sized 245/45-18 BFG KDW2's. I can go a lot lower, but not until I roll the fenders more because of the new tires. Was pretty angry discount tire ordered the wrong size, and it was too late to tell them to stop, but the beefier look has kind of grown on me (minus the torque loss in 5th and 6th gear cruising on the highway). Likely going to keep the same overall size tire when I go back to 19's (just like the look of 19's better than 18's). Been eyeballing either 19x9.5 SSR Professor SP1's in matte gunmetal or the new spectrum silver. Forgive the crappy quality, camera wouldn't focus worth a damn and got grainy because of the low and splotchy ambient light:

 

secret to the madness:

 

Sp1 would look so sexy on that

 

If I sell my wheels today, I'll be ordering new wheels, today.

 

mad max, thats probably the dopest 4th gen i've ever seen. period.

 

Hmmm... all these maximas are making me want to go back lol.

old ride...

 

I remember seeing this car on here before HELLAFLUSH was cool.

 

Well, I finally did enough to feel worthy of posting here:





It's a little mellow, but I need to keep it a DD. However, I have BCR coilovers on the way.

The current setup is MRR GT7's 18X8.5, 35 offset on Tein springs, 8mm spacers in the back. Tires are Hankook Ventus V4ES 245/45/18. I'm thinking really hard about getting the 9.5's for the rear. I'm hesitating though because as it is, something is rubbing in the rear on hard dips. I can't figure out what it is - fenders are rolled and I shaved the tabs. NO damage or even rub marks on the tires...

 

nice^

 

JESUS, MARY AND JOSEPH that is B-E-A-utiful!!!

I need a moment... ... ...

 

Wait until you see his new set up.

 

no wait til ya'll see my new setup

 

Wheels will be here Thursday

 

 

Your side wall is too big for 18s. That's why you rub. Go down to a 245/40/18. The tires you have now belong on 6th gens or g35/350z.

 

Yeah, I was so stubborn about getting this size, now I'm paying the price, lol! I love the way they look though, and now I'm stuck until I use them up.

Today I took out the 8mm spacers and went down to 5mm and it helped out tremendously. Only rubbed once on a particularly tall speed bump on my way home and I took it on quite strong at that, just to test it out.

I suspect once I go to coilovers it will improve even more. I'm running the teins on oem shocks and I can barely stand them.

 

Wide-a$$$ ???

sneak peak at my new setup

 

That's just insane - awesome!

Nevermind, I'm still rubbing. Looking for advice/suggestions here: http://forums.maxima.org/tires-wheel...ml#post8442874

 

225/40 and your good

 

Here's one I took the other night at a local meet:

 

Yea wide indeed I was having trouble believing it cuzlyou just don't see that fitment everyday lol

U straight piped or what?

 

nice rear end! from the sound of it, he's straight piped with maybe a resonator. God damn that's ****ing loud!



wireless, 2.5'' or 3''?

 

Nice!!!

 

Yea it's straight piped... 3 inch ypipe 2 1/2 mandrel bend after that with a 24" resonator no muffler, no cats.

It's loud but only when I get on it. Daily driving alot of popping noises going on lol

 

these two maximas, make me give up in everrrrrrrrr trying to own and stance a maxima again...gah damn that's some sexy

 

shyt you made me look twice..air it down more.....

 

I hope to be lowering the car a bit more this weekend. Finally got around to getting a heat gun to help flatten/pull the fenders, so the rear is getting lowered more. I'm going to shorten the bump stops sometoo, because right now the car basically rests ~.75" higher than it would without the bump stops. I haven't hit them at all yet while driving, so hopefully laid out it will be going down about another .5" more in the front, and about 1"-1.5" in the back. The beefier tires (245/45-18) keep the car about .5-.75" higher than it would be on the more traditional sized 245/40-18, but I hope to be able to just crown the lips of the wheels when it's laid out.

 

haha sweet. i ran 2.5" straight pipe for a month or so when i had my Altima headers & custom y-pipe made/installed, it sounded wicked loud but i loved it. sounded so beasty, but it did have some rasp and drone at times, I also didn't have a cat and i think my generic resonator was like 12" or 16" wasnt that long at all, but eh

Can't wait to see it put back together. Looks like you ditched the XXR's, what wheels are those? It seems XXR's are the stepping stone, I'm in the process of changing mine too lol.
