Anyhow, its time to upgrade the rims on my max and I am torn between the choices out there. I always loved the fat lip that you would see on a BMW so I have narrowed my choices down to these three. I am going to stick to 18" size and I would really appreciate your input guys.

Well these are the rims that I love the most but I can honestly say I can't afford them. Not for this car, not in Brooklyn. They are about $1300 per rim.



And here are my choices that will fit my budget. No, they are not in the order I like them as not to bias any opinions.

#1 Zinik Minardi - the only problem is chrome --> a bit too flashy



#2 HP Racing D10 in Hyper Silver with Polished Lip



#3 HP Racing Lightning in Hyper Silver with Polished Lip



Please HELP, your opinion counts!!!

 

I found that everyone has their own opinion of rims. Some people didnt like bronze rims on a black car and some did. I did so thats why I chose my bronzies. I also wanted a lighter rim for better perfromance as my car explores the performance aspect of the Maxima.

These choices all look nice. The best thing to do is to see what they look like on the car, either with photoshop, the tire rack program, or looking at a max with those rims on, like on cardomain.

 

1st one looks hott

 

i like the first one, but like you said you can't afford it, so i'm going with the zinik. i think they come in black with polished lip if i'm not mistaken. my .02

 

man oh man, those ones that you can't afford are too hot for tv. for that reason i cannot advise on any other choice

 

I like the HP D10's

 

#2 FTW! It also looks like it may be the lightest, too.

 

One of my favorite looks in rims. These always remind me of the BMW look of a few years back. Having a black Max too, I would put this style of wheel on to give the Max a more European flare.

 

Yup #3, reminds me of my first rims I had on the Max...

 

Thanks guys!

Anybody else wants to take a stab?

 

i likke #3. jsmith, what rims are on your car?

 

1st or 4th, those would look great!

 

was going to pick the first one (zinik) then read ur ething abt chrome....

go with the least number of spokes... easiest to clean?? but as deus said.... see what looks good (photoshop etc.)

 

i would personally go for #3, I love mesh rims with a nice lip. If u're racing on the Belt, stick with 18's or 19's, 20's won't last a month. Roads suck around here I know.

 

I hear ya, know exactly what you're talking about.

I would go for 19" but recently bought some good tires and would like to stick to them.

 

these are hot, but dont get them 18" theyll look tiny on a big body like the maxima.

 

In the pic above, ADR, M-Classics (pieces of crap)
Now Enkei LX-M...

 

How about these ones I think you may like them.







and one more for good measure.



i am not sure what your budget is but these are not very expensive. If you did not live in the City I would tell you to jump to the 19's or 20's but I here the roads in NYC suck.

 

1st one looks the best, but seriously $1300 per rim?? especially not for 18"'s

 

gotta get a nice lip, i got the silver AZA's on mine 20"s and I constantly get compliments on the car.

 

I personally like the last one. Reminds me of my rims.

Very Nice Thanks for da help

 

I vote for #1

 

I appreciate your input guys.

 

hmm very nice rims

 

#1 for me.

 

These are Hot!!
But, to answer your question, I'd gow with #3 (#2 isn't bad though)...I think it depends on what style you're going for. They both seem to have a different look.

 

I had 19' mesh rims on my old max - ADR MSports (Hyper Silver) - they were GREAT and looked tight on black.

Always got compliments on them.

Good luck with your purchase!

 

The 2nd JiuJitsuThug for sure!
And damn JiuJitsuThug that's going to be one sweet FX!!!

 

Either of these would be fine. The first one because the fake rivits aren't as prominent.

 

The rims on this max are amazing. Is this guy on this org? It seems like this max has a lot more than cool rims.

 

Yes - he's an org member - sexima.

 

great input fellas. I should be making my final decision within a week or two, pics will follow.

 

#3 but i think they all look good

 

I am trying to get a deal on ADRs that JiuJitsu showed here. Will see, I am yet to get lip sizes for the rims. I found out that the rim is available in 18 x 7.5, 18 x 8.5, 18 x 9.5.

Do you guys know how wide can I go for front and rear? Car is lowered on Progress
