To those with 20" wheels.....
To those with 20" wheels.....
I am looking at purchasing a set of 20" wheels, and just wondering what all fitment those have found... Can we fit a 8.5" wheel? What is the offset ranges that will work with the max? Right now I am looking at getting a 20 x 8.5" wheel with a 40mm offset, but I am doubting a 8.5" will fit and even curious to see about the 40mm offset.....any help?
I don't know why people would put 10" wheels on the rear.....I guess maybe they thought it was rear wheel drive and wanted a staggered look
Anyways I have 19" Axis Spiders in hyper black right now, but want a little bigger... I am looking at the Enkei LM1's but they only come in 18 and 20"....so I guess if I want them I sure as heck am not gonna go down to 18's but I just don't know if these 20's will fit or not......

I can see 20's on SUV's and such, but a Maxima..... so many downsides to 20's on a max why spend the money for them when they will be destroyed by the road because there is no rubber inbetween it and the road lol. If it were purely a show car well then I would say why not.

Nice setup nismo-maxima555....what offset r u running n the back? I have been trying to figure out what kinda staggered setup we could fit on our cars, but always get the same old "we have a front wd car..why do u want wider tires on the back?"...cause i think it looks badass. What suspension setup r u running, looks low enough to b coilovers.

35 offset......... they are RVM Magnums.... I paid 400 for the wheels only, for tires i paid around 700 bucks ( kuhmo supra's 245/35/r19 front and 275/30/r19 on the rear) I still have my stock spings and struts. I lowered my car in the picture with photoshop
probably i'll be getting teins h techs and gr2 struts............ holfully by next month( or if some body wants to buy those for my b-day march 26th)
Here is of how it looks now, I hate the 4x4 look

Ok....I guess maybe nobody understood my initial question... I did not ask 'hey do you guys think 20's would look good on my car', I said FOR THOSE WITH 20" WHEELS, WHAT IS THE FITMENT. For those 18-20 yr olds that just post on and on and on and on about getting 18's or this and that.... That is not what I want. As far as slow....Well newsflash for 90% of the people on this forum, most of you didn't buy a maxima because it is FAST, so stop pretending. Just because you beat up on a civic the other day doesn't mean IT'S FAST. Maxima's have potential I understand that with nitrous or boost, but like I said 90% of you think the stock power plus 10hp here and there makes it a real FAST car. NO
Back to the point, FOR THOSE WITH 20" WHEEL, WHAT IS YOUR FITMENT PLEASE. ANY DO'S OR DON'TS? All other thread ******, please look to post elsewhere PLEASE I am looking for info. Happy Easter
i test fitted 20x8.5 falken wheels on my bucket with 35MM offsett there was no rubbing issues and should be find with a mediocre drop. I know the common sensus is no 20's in this forum but to each their own..good luck with your search..

All other thread ******, please look to post elsewhere PLEASE I am looking for info. why not just ask, who has ?x8.5 rims and what is your offset because it is essentially the same thing. I mean I can have a 15x8.5 with a 65 series sidewall which is within cm's of a 20x8.5 with 35 series tire. Your spider's (great wheel by the way) are a 19x8 with a +40 offset. Many people have 19x8.5" with +40/+35 range without any problem. Just make sure you go with the right tire size 245/35-20. If you go 245/40-20 you will probably run into problems. Good luck.
THANK YOU FOR A SIMPLE ANSWER! I really appreciate it. I work for an import shop and all the vendors I call and ask say 'nope can't fit a 20 on there' and we got a fax for a set that was clearanced....so I was wondering if I could get away with a set of 20" wheels for cheap. I have recently decided to wait and look at the new wheels for 2005/2006 and see if I can't get something a little different. Thank you for the clean answer, I will now know in the future!
