I really hate the stock rims that are on my maxima so I am looking for some newer maxima rims. I have been looking on craigslist and eBay but I cant seem to come across any good deals. Is anybody here selling some or know where I can get some for a good deal??

(Maybe junkyard too I am sure, but it too cold here right now for that)

 

location?

 

on location.

Any 4th gen or 5th gen rims will fit your 3rd no problems...there's a local guy to me (Seattle) who's a forum member, his 3rd gen is rolling on stock 97-99 SE 5 spokes, looks

Also, the 6 spoke G35 rims look and fit

Check the classifieds here too...

(maybe you can get the rims for cheap)

(same thing)

 

Appreciate it. But I am hoping to do what others have done and find rims AND tires (But I will settle on just rims) for about $200. And I am looking for around 2000 year maxima se rims. Ive seen others get lucky with finding them for that price in good/decent condition. Ive been looking so hopefully Ill find some soon..

 

I bought my 04 maxima rims for 150, got lucky though. I love the look!

 

It does look nice! Hope I can get that lucky.

 

Quite honestly don't force yourself to buy something just because you want rims, I just waited til something good popped up on craigslist, it was worth the wait that's for sure

Just installed my 1999 maxima rims from craglist. Paid $150 with tires. Worth the wait.

 

02-03 SE wheels are heavy but attractive. They sink pretty far in tho, 10mm spacers might look better.

 

Heavier than these rims? (Not my car, but the rims mine has.)

 

Infiniti has some nice options too


(02-04 I35sport 17x7)

I also like the 01 AE wheels, very similar to what Caped posted but with a centercap, so the lugs arent exposed..

 

yes, way way heavier. the stock wheels are 16-17lb i believe.... the 5.5gen SE wheels are like 28lb. plus they are wider (7" rather than 6-6.5"), so you put a wider tire on them (215-235mm rather than 205mm) so the tire itself is heavier too.

 

An idea,

2 sets of NISMO fronts from a 2008 tack 350Z...

Silver or Smoke

 

If you want to stay cheap, you can use 16" 240sx (s14) rims. They look nice on a Maxima and not many drift guys want the stock wheels. You can buy 16" tires, which will save you a little money. Check the drift or 240 forums, along with CL.

Look like this:





Oh, I would also suggest doing a CL search for 5x114, 5x114.3 or 5x4.5 You never know what other wheels might be out there with the same bolt pattern. A long time ago, I bought some nice forged wheels on CL cheap. Unfortunately, I ruined them in a construction zone.

 

300zx rims also look good

 

I'm running 18" 350Z wheels on my 3rd gen,no need for spacers or anything. I have 225-40-18's on it now. Lowered in front only with Eibachs. You can find these wheels from 200-350 on CL. Good luck.

 

 

stahp!
both of you are making me miss my pearl-white car even worse now
