Need help with wheels!!!!

I have an opportunity to buy these wheels set on Nitto 555's. Everything is brand new. Now here's the thing, my buddy is only gonna charge me $7-800 for a set of wheels and tires that originally was probably $13-1400. These are 18's with the gold center. My car by the way is an 02 Silver Sand. What do you guys think? These are ready to go and I could get them on my car tomorrow if I wanted...

The Wheels!!!

Go for it, worst case scenario if the wheels dont look good on your Max, you can easily mark up the price considering the wheels and tires are probably $1300-1400 dollars. just my .02 cents.

I'd say buy something else those 18" are only 7" wide. If you go for 18" wheel I suggest you get at least 8" to 8.5 " wide wheel, with the right offset you will be fine and have no rub, plus you'll have a much better range of available tire, otherwise you'll have to stick with 225 and there is not much choice available.
