All I can say is....they look awesome IRP, even with bad curb rash on one wheel. Rare rims on a rare car!

Dayam! That looks too sweet, Sarin. There must be sowewhere near you that can fix that rim for you, up here there's a place called Nu-Brite that fixes rims. You wouldn't be able to tell it from a new one after they fix it. Pretty reasonable prices too.

They can actually fix rash like that...with a chunk of the wheel gone?

What is the purpose of converting to a 5-lug setup? I am new to the older maximas, I had a 97.

Well in my case...so I can use a set of rims that I had....as well as give myself the ability to use newer gen brake kits, and to set my car apart from the rest.

There are three places here that are gov't certified to perform wheel repairs, Nu-Brite, Green's Automotive, and Panther Precision Machine.
