Well, they don't quite compare to Sarin's, but they do suit the car. Old school Rikens! A friend of mine had picked them up for his 280Z, but they didn't clear his front struts. They came off of an 86 RX-7. 16x7 rims with 205/55 Toyo Proxes FZ4's. What do you think?

 

hehehe, didn't wanna be out done huh wylie? Those rims look awesome on the car. I love the old style Riken rims. Pluss they look like they are a nice silver finish that goes well with your car. Looking good!

damn it, I've been looking for them.
anyways, they look really cool.

 

What do you guys think some 17 inch 04 Spec v Rims look on a maxima of our year.

 

I think they will go well with our cars. However, just like any other Nissan 17" rim, they will be pretty heavy....but cosemetically, they would look pretty awesome!

Reason I ask is because they are selling them pretty cheap. I want to wait until my tires that I put on about a good 6 months ago go out but thatll be too long. Ive just been pondering the thought. I wish someone could do a photoshop for me.

 

they arent the same bolt pattern are they?

 

Yup they are Even the 16" 2003's se-r's aka the 2000-2001 Altima SE rims. The Spec V 2003 5 spoke 17" wheels will fit our 4 lug bolt pattern as well. I pondered those first. Now Im looking into the 04 Spec v's. My sister works with a kid who owns a red 04 spec v. Im going to try to talk to him to see if I could test fit them on my car or if he'd be willing to let them go. I might just test them and take pics and wait awhile before buying, though.

 

i dont know, i kinda like my stock wheels but theyre kinda heavy and beat up, i'd really like some that look the same but are nickel plated.

i saw some on a quest once but i dont know what pattern they had

 

Quest? as in Nissan Quest?? they run 5x114.3mm lug setup.

 

Yeah, quest rims wont work. Im surprised that they never converted the sentras bolts to 5 lug when the SE-R Spec V came out.

 

they're finishing off the U13/L30 parts bin I suppose...

 

Well if you think about it....most cars they compete with are also 4 lug. Seems to be a standard for those type/size cars.

S

 

naah, i still like the idea of finishing the parts bin better... the L30 were -after all- done with U13's left over parts suspension wise.

 

Man, those look really nice....are they the stock wheels off an 86 RX-7?

 

Nope, they're aftermarket Rikens.
