I was liking it until I saw the "web" inside. The web kinda kills it IMO. Do they make them in 20'???

I dont know about those rims either...theyre nice but the webbing throws it off for some reason.

Same reason I didnt go with these rims by Asanti...I liked it cuz it was different but there was just something that told me not to get them.

Web no...
Asanti just look over designed to me.
Diablo just too busy for my taste (spinners as well?) or the other one?
Here's the wheel I wanted and still do, special order from Japan.

Sorry but these rims are GARBAGE. Too each his own, but I'm not into the bling, bling look at me rim (not to say that you are). I think a nice clean and uncluttered, understated rim with a tuned look complements the 6th gen.

Hey pause. You think the Diablo's suck? Im not really going all that bling.
Ive always wanted dark rims for my car, which Ive had since May 2003, I have a black with black leather 3.5SE 6spd. I like the look of black rims. Im also adding a spoiler and grill, chrome plates, and Im tinting my windows (tomorrow actually! very pumped!)

Am I going for a look? Maybe. I think balck rims with black Maxima looks cool.

hoserjose,

Hey, it's your car so do what you want. I personally like the stock wheels much more than those you are asking about, but you don't have to talk me into anything. And why care what I think, or anyone else. If you are just looking for a rubber-stamp yes, this forum is a bad place to seach.

I personally really like the look of the Axis Mod Seven. I think they make one with a black (or dark) center, and that would be a very clean look, and not too much "bling".

I agree with you on the black rims, they are kinda hot.

Thanks for the opinion... I am still looking around. I got my windows tinted over the weekend (20 in back, 35 front), and when I did I realized that if I get a grill and dark/black rims I dont need a spoiler. So Im gonna keep looking, amazingly I have 31K miles and dont need new tires yet! So Im gonn a wiat for that you know? No reason getting rid of good tires. Plus, I can sell my rims too...

Luckily I have a friend who's dad can get me rims at about cost.

I like bronze rims cuz it gives the max that performance look, which is what I like, not the bling look.

So i got an email back and damn these bad boys are expensive. $3,120 for Chrome 19's and $2,720 in silver. I know they are high quality rims, so i expected them to be expensive. But damn. I think i'll have to pass, why spend that much when they can get damaged easily, might as well put that amount towards a sc or something.

SOrry but those rims are weird/ugly I personally like the stock rims ALOT. ANd if I did an upgrade, I might go totally chrome because I thougth the black woudl look cool, but when i actually see it im not impressed. Tirerack has a tire/rim pkg of 20" for like $2500 and it looks great online. Im too lazy to post the link but im sure noone cares anyway lol

I agree, I think the stock rims are very very nice. Its making it hard for me tochange them. BUt i really like bronze rims. Even thought about powder coating them, but I want lighter rims

I think they would be a very nice complement to your black on black. Hopefully you will post "after installation" pics.

If I had a lot of extra coin (which I don't), I might consider some bronze rims to complement my Coral Sand exterior/Caffe Latte interior, but I really don't see myself changing from the stock rims because I want to use my money for other things. Some of the aftermarket rims strike me as VERY expensive.

Good luck!

Sorry guys I missed the replies on this thread. Check this site:

http://store.finalstageauto.net/workwheels.html

Like I said those were the ones I wanted until $$$ came into play.
I know that superautobacs has a set of the seeker (the one I linked) in 19" for 35% off. They've had them forever, but I'm running 20"...
