Hey thanks guys. The rims are Lexani Lss-10's. I will have to try and find someone to do that balancing for me. They came mounted and balanced so I figured they might be a little off.

red stripe wheels work on very few cars and I'm leaning towards no for the maxima.... unless you are going for the complete race look

Yeah I think those would fit with that offset. Wow 24 lbs that is excellent! I second the red stripe looks nice.

Another question to the members with aftermarket rims. TPMS. How does that work? Do I have to by something new or can i just take them off the original rims? Do the new rims "Have to be compatible with TPMS?"

you need the TPMS from your current wheels as you don't want to buy new ones (due to cost). If the new wheel is not TPMS compatible, the sensors might be able to be modified to fit. I have seen it done with some Honda Civic wheels (years 2006-)

I like them, but I also think they are staggered front and rear, so just be aware that you may want to get two sets of fronts

I posted a thread on g37s wheels on the max and no one here was able to photoshop them, I even included the pictures. Hopefully someone will.

I'm interested in getting better looking rims for my new MAX SV...Perhaps some BBS lightweight 19s... However, I do have a quick question...

For those of you that installed non-OEM sized tire/wheel combo, what do you do about the spare in case of a flat? I know my stock spare is the same diameter as my OEM wheel/tire. However, if I get bigger tires/wheels, the spare may not be the same diameter. So what do you do in case of a flat? Do you buy 5 tire/wheel and swap of the spare? Just curious....

LOL, we have a full sized spare? I haven't even checked. I would leave the spare alone. It's just that a temporary fix until you patch or replace your oem tire.

Well, I just had these Moda MD5 with continental extremecontact DWS tires put on, and yes they are 19in. Why, because these are much better than the stock 18in and I do not like the 20s on the maxima related to ride comfort. 19s are a good compromise in between. I love the way they look!

Wow, very nice - lots of room between the spokes to wash the inside of the wheel well. Can you share where you got them from and how much for the rims?

Those are probably the best aftermarket wheels I have seen in this thread. Looks great!

I like the seats but don't care for the "murder look" but that seems to be the current fad today.

I got the rims from tirerack.com for about $160 each. Tires were from my local tire guy for $200 a piece. In total, cost about $1500 for everything. I am very satisfied!

Is the paint smooth or rough texture? I like the interior but from the pics its hard to tell what the paint really looks like.
Nice work either way.

Thanks for the compliments and opinions. The texture is smooth and is finished in a satin clear coat as well.

I like it. I will admit it took a couple days to allow my mind to open up, but I do like the look. It is very different. Def needs the spoiler though.

How much does a re-upholstering like that cost?

My question to others with 20's is i have noticed between 50-60 mph i get some pretty bad vibrations in the steering wheel. Its almost as if the tires become bumpy....was wondering if anyone else has encountered such issues.

Did you get hub rings when you bought the Lexani wheels? If not that is usually the culprit or if the shop that installed them didn't put them in properly, that could also be the culprit

Interior package is about $2500. We did seats, headliner, and door panels in leather/suede

I'm just waiting on my Eibach springs from Stillen to get the ride height down a bit.

Let me know what you guys think.
By far the best looking setup I've seen IMO. Really, really bad*ss - not ghetto, not ricer looking, not over-the-top...just right. great look bro.

What to get..

Hello all, I am looking for the right wheel/tire combination for my 7th gen. Right now I have found a wheel and I am considering 20's in these: http://www.wheelwarehouse.com/p-4478...black-lip.aspx

I really do not know much about wheels/tires, so I am wondering about 20x8.5 and 20x9.5 differences. Also, what size tires should I be looking for to wrap those desired wheels in? I do not have any modifications as of now, but would like to do a 1" drop or so in the near future, if that changes anything.

Thanks again.
