how would 17" 02 altima rims look on a 4g?

anyone done this? the bolt pattern is 5 by 114.3mm and they have a 38-40mm offset, which is the same. i found some guy whos selling his rims and Turanza EL42 215/55/15 tires with 15000kms on em for 600 canadian. does that sound about right? im thinking its a pretty good deal.

how do you think it would look? im on a stock suspension... would i be lookin kinda 4x4 with the 17" wheels? pics should be on the way...

Yeah, but no wheels look great with the stock suspension gap up front. It'd look better even lower, but I had to keep some ride quality by going with H&Rs.

I have seen a pic of them on the boards before.

IMO: They look sort of stockish, spend the cash on some better wheels, they are also kind of on the heavy side.
