Some of you might be happy bout this...finally sold the spinners.

Hey, finally sold them and took them off the Maxima. You might wonder why I put them on....well, bought the car with them so took it with the 20" rims. Figured I could keep the 20" and sell the spinners. Sold them at a rim shop for 300 bucks. The set of 4 20" spinners. Glad they are gone....but just had to post some pics of the Max with the spinners. The wife hated them from the get go. Anyways.....last pics of the Max with spinners....old pics as they were taken when it was new. They had some scratches and I guess 300 bucks was an OK deal.





BTW....I sold them because I never really liked them, also with so many cheap spinner hubcaps....LOL. These used to be cool about 4 years ago....but tired out right now. Just wanted to share.

I do not like the stock 20" inch rims that much, when I get back from Iceland, might get a new set of rims. Right now looking for a set of cheap Altima or older Maxima rims that will bolt up when I put the car in storage for 2 years. I am sure in 2 years, rims styles will change.

Anyone know what kind of Nissan rims will bolt up to a Maxima besides Altima and Maxima rims.

Looking for a set of rims....15" would be fine with tires. I do not care about what they look like as they will go flat being parked for 2 years in storage. Want to just bolt up some old junk yard tires and wheels.

What would you all suggest? I am looking for JUNKER rims and tires to go flat....taking off the 20" and putting them in the back of the storage room. I do not want to put the car on block as I am afraid of putting stress on the stock struts....by the time I come back, the 04 Maxima will be out of warranty....you guys get what I mean.

That and was 300 bucks a good price for me to sell some used 20" spinners with a few scratches? I think I did OK. Using the money to get our house cleaned when we move. Checking out of military base housing is a pain in the ***....better to pay someone to clean it for you....white glove inspection.

I have heard pro and con about putting a car on blocks. Now looking for a crappy set of tires and rims from a junk yard. Wonder if some Sentra rims will fit. I am hoping for a set of 200 dollar rims and tires. Right now, got a set of 3 series BMW rims and tires I am about to throw away or give to a friend. Might check with a junk yard to see if they got some old Altima rims and tires to trade for the BMW rims...as they will make a bit more money off them....hell....BMW rims and tires for trade for some beater Nissan rims that could be trashed to hell....just something to park the car on for 2 years....no flat spots to worry about.
