Out of those 2, I like the Nakayama. The other one looks like it is missing a centercap or something.

How much do they each weigh. I like the first one better, but if its heavier than the second, I would go with the second

I agree as well! Actually I just really don't like the other one because every damn honda has them on it.

The Nakayama's look very refined and finished I think they will look great on your max.

I like the Enkei, actually. The second one looks very similar to the stock 17's. The Enkei is drilled...Looks kinda neat

Nakayama definitely. A very refined rim. You see the Enkei's on fried rice.

Enkei wheels are better looking but heavy, somewhere 22-24lb/each. You can get the same design and the lighter wheel by getting some "generic" brand. Either way, both look great.

I know someone with a Black '99 Maxima and 18 inch Nakayama rims. Let me tell you....IT LOOKS AWSOME!! In my opinion, if they were chrome they would look that much better!

I like the top ones better. I actually saw a 5th Gen with those wheels today when I went to go look at the G35. They looked really good, except the fact that they were 16s.
