Altima Coupe 18s

Any body have these wheels on either a 4th or 5th gen Maxima? If so, can someone post pics. Would like to see what they look like on a Maxima.

This is the wheel that I am referring to.

I just wanted to make sure you are aware that the link you posted are not OEM Nissan wheels. They are replica's. The company that makes them is OE wheels llc. in florida. I have read many good reviews and many bad review of their wheels. The bad were mostly about vibrations or fitment issues.

Make sure you do a bit of research on the company before you purchase them.

Well picked a set of these sooner than I thought, just got back from the shop. They are sweet. I will post picks, just don't have time right now.
I got them from here, awesome guys to deal with. I live close by so picked them up and saved on shipping but still not a bad deal for someone further away. Brand new out of the box from Nissan, no replicas!

Here are some quick pics I took today.....And Yes I am getting suspension/springs next, looking at illumina/eibach combo. Also I want to get a spacer for the rear to make it more flush and would like the wheels refinished in a darker gunmetal color but these will do for now.

Nice!! What tire size did you decide to go with? I see they offer a few different sizes.

They look more flush than the stock SE 17's from the pics. Are they really?

Lowering is already in the works. I am also gonna hit the calipers with some paint to make them look a little nicer. I am on 235/40 for tires. The wheels may be a little more flush with the wheel wells but I think they are the same offset as the stock wheels. I am gonna lower it first and see how it looks before I worry about spacers though.

I've been planning on getting these rims since I saw them in the summer when I bought my G37X rims. Planning to buy some in the summer.
