Opinions on wheels....




TSW Cadwell, or G37 wheels. Which would look better on the max? I actually want the TSW wheels. Can anyone photochop the TSW wheel on the max?

I just think 10 spokes is a few too many. Both wheels have a bold look, and thats whats keeping me on the fence.

The G37 wheels look really nice. I'm thinking about getting some wheels and those might be it. Are the Sport Edition knockoffs any good because I really don't want to spend like $300/wheel for the real ones. And on a side note does anyone have those painted black on a black Maxima.

I dont think there are any replicas being made in an 19". There are some in an 18" though, but you dont want that. Just keep an eye out on craigslist and ebay for a set, it wont be too hard to find some, espicially where you live.

If you're going for radical and unusual, then go for the TSW rims. If you're going for undeniably classic, tasteful, and downright beautiful, go for the G37 rims. I think the G37 rims give the Maxima an exotic, yet classic look. The TSW rims look a bit amateurish and boy-racer-ish. Young people and old people will be able to appreciate your car a lot more with the G37 wheels. The G37 rims make the Maxima look like Pamela Anderson in a push up bra - before her implants were removed. Sexy, sexy, sexy.

which one is lighter ???

I went to a rim and tire place close to my work and they had the TSW's (19's with a nice lip + Falkens) for like $1400 -> canadian so like 500 bucks US <- j/k

I have seen the G37 rims and they are amazing (they do look SIIIIIC on the white max man) DAMN!!!

decisions, decisions...

Well, I think i'm going to go with the G37s. For one, they will end up being cheaper than buying the TSWs, and two, my local dealer has some take-offs they want to sell for $800! Wheels have a total of 30 miles on them. They swapped them and put some MOMOs on the G37 and rolled it into the showroom. Customer came in and bought it and left the wheels.

G37's for $800 is a no brainer ..get em! You like both and these cost less. There has to be something pretty sick about those TSW wheels to spend more cash when you know what these will look like and they look excellent. Use that extra cash and get another mod along with some confirmed hot wheels on your max. I'm saying this and I like the TSWs.

$800!!! that's an insane deal

I also agree, the TSW's here in TO are like double the price but the more I hear about the G37's the more I like 'em

Ok, I went ahead and pulled the trigger today. I get home and notice that 3 of the wheels have centercaps. Now i'm trying to get the dealer to give me the 4th one. They are $36 each! Here they are sitting in my garage. Now the question is do i use the centercaps, or put the nissan ones in? The nissan ones dont quite match in finish. They wont be going on the car for a while, I have to start saving for tires.

I'd leave them off, it makes the look racier/tougher!! That's what I did (plus the caps that came with mien were chrome FTL)

ohhh, I cant do that. I tried that once a while back and it bothered me sooo bad. Thats a nasty looking stud under there and it needs to be covered up! But to each his own. Now I have to track down lugs/locks for these wheels. I know I need the factory lugs since they are the only ones that will work.
