those are Killer. I really like those a lot. really compliment the car. Great choice. And not 20's are not too big. Most of us with wheels are rolln 20's a few stuck with 18's and a few jumped up to 22's

The first speed shop i went to wanted a little over 2k. i knew they were one of the higher priced shops around. i ended up getting them from another shop for $1860, mounted, balanced and shipped to the shop. that was the cheapest price a could find anywhere

Nice !!

Those are actually one of the wheels I was considering, but wasnt sure how they would look on my smoke max. There's an IS300 in my neighborhood that has them too and they look REALLY nice. I also saw them on wheelmax.com for a decent price.

P.S. Think we can get pics of the side of the car?

Thanks

Well hopefully you like them that's what counts. I just wonder, you seem a bit hesitant because of the title of your post. Opinions are like a$$holes...as they say.

Just as long as you like them no one else matters!!
And for the record they look good and 20's are a perfect size!!

i hear ya. i'm not too concerned with what people think. i spent a good amount of time choosing these rims. reason i say that 20" might have been too big is because they are hard to drive with in Jersey. roads are brutal here.

The question is, do those rims go with the type of music you listen too? If not, then get aids and switch up them rims.

If your rims are vibrating after being balanced and aligned, would you think the lugs are not properly torqued down?

What is a "harmonic" balancing of the wheels?

Wow... that's exactly the wheels that I was looking at and the exact size. I love those. I was wondering how it looks on a Maxima, and it looks great.

Sorry for not making my own tread for this question, but I'm limited to what I can access on maxima.org since I'm a newbie I guess.

Anyways, I wanted to ask about the K-sport suspension. How does it ride? Did you lose alot of comfort in the ride compared to stock? How does the tire wear hold up - any bad cambering? And last, how much did you end up paying from the group buy? But Yeah, I'm getting kind of annoyed by that big *** cave gap I currently have in the front. Let me know! Thanks!

id say the best look is the nismo rims becuase ride quality should not be sacrificed for looks. how is the ride quality anyway?
