do u mean they're plain, or they are very common? don't know much about rims, and although they may not be my first choice, the guy's got them in the size i want.

Common. Probably the most common aftermarket wheel for the Maxima still made (since Monsoons aren't made anymore). I agree with Craig, try something different. It just might turn up nice

You know what, who cares? It's your car, you have to look at it all the time, so you should just go with whatever looks good to your eyes. I mean unless image is a big factor for you, you should just do whatever you like! For instance, Konig Tantrums are even more common, but hey I like them and were up there on my list until I saw some rims I liked better.

Screw 'em I say!

Yup. If you're going to spend that much money on wheels, be an individual.

I think they bulge out too much from the sides.

But if thats what you want, get them.

And as far as common rims go,... I think I win the award for the most recognized maxima rims next to the konig monsoons. (i.e. fast and the furious)

But I got them because I wanted them.

Just my 2 cents.

Honestly those rims are horrible. Try something else. Something more unique

Trophys were on the FnF car, but not nearly as many people have them as the Konig wheels. Trophys look goooooood, too.
