might as well paint your car bright pink with house paint.

1. Your ride will suffer.
2. Your car will look like a 4x4 (even moreso than stock)
3. Your speedometer will be thrown off.
4. It will look very, very tacky.

go on www.cardomain.com, they have some max's sitting on 20's, IMO they look disgusting.

I like the way it looks man with the right drop. It looked hot on those cars on the page so it will look tight on your max also.

The rims on ebay are nice but that style is going to get old..
and 20's on a MAX? hey, if you want the attention, go for it. You'll get a headache when its time to buy new tires for them.

if he wants 20s let him get 20s, he reazlize sooner or later, some have to "feel it to believe it"

as long as u have the money and u want to do it, go ahead, but your being advised that it wont be good at all, but if you really want it go ahead, and post back on how u like the setup.

20's on a max screams I'm poor and cant afford a real car so I have to over compensate and put rims worth more than the car itself on so people think I have money.

I dont buy that. You might as well say people on here are like, "I'm poor and cant afford a BMW or Skyline, so let me get an exhaust, body kit, AE, and anything else these cars dont come with." If the original poster is contimplating dubs, thats them. You do things to your car for you, not anyone else. If it was up to a lot of people on here, all the fixed up Maximas would look damn near exactly a like.

Nice rims, good price. Your call, personally I think 20 inch rims are for big body cars. Lexus LS430, Benz, 7 series BMW, Infiniti Q45, you get the idea. The Max just doesn't look right with 20's. However 19's look good, but there is less of a selection of rims in that size. Either way its what you want, there is a guy with a white infiniti I30 in Hawaii with 20's on his car. It looks real good, he has a hell of a drop, and I believe he had the fenders rolled. Can't remember his name anymore, it was so long ago.

this thread turned out to be comedy... lol. anyways i agree. 20''s look hella ugly on maximas. 18s and a lip kit will make it look nice and low. it'll look hella cleaner too. besides, wouldn't anyone want to save money instead buying those ugly dubs? yes everyone in here does. but hey if you like 20s its ur choice its ur car.

i wanted to get 20" but got 17" instead o.O

But i'd like to see those rims in 17", not 20"

P.S.: While in San Diego, i saw new 300M with (my guess) at least 22" and it looks like wagon

i went with 19s.......

if you like 20s then go with them ,why are you askin other people?

ride quality will be the same with 19s and 20s cause both will have 35 profile tires.

And if you get 20s you still need a drop.

Not only are they ugly, but so are the rims. I like big, chrome rims but not on MANY cars nevermind a Max. I never really liked Lexani's bulky design, only on trucks sometimes. I'd go 20's, but I'd be on 35 series. I know a kid who's put 245/40's on 19's on his Max and no speedo trip and a nicer, comfier ride without it lookin bad either. That with a drop on H&R's or H-Techs would be a perfect fit with no rubbing like S-Techs would give with that setup. Therefore, that's why I'll be gettin 19" Zenettis instead. 19's on 245/40's is like 18's.
