im either getting a set of ssr gt3's or volk gramlight 57f pro's i just want a sick set of 19's
i have a set of 16's, i just want that one SEXY set of wheels to get those heads to turn a little more

oh and im all performance btw, you need that little hint of sexy appeal to make it just right though

I was wondering how you could be about performance....yet get 19's. Then I noticed that you were looking at SSR and gramlights. Are you somehow NOT paying an arm and a leg? and how much are these things gonna weigh?

18s look huge on our cars. I wouldn't go over that, personally.

All depends how much you want to stretch...I can't personally tell you over the internet what to get as I am more experienced with 4th gens. Best thing to do it to go out and measure your current setup...

Measure front and rear: Inner wheel well clearence, strut/spring clearence, outer fender clearence...

Turn the wheel lock to lock and measure the perpendicular distance to anything that is close to the wheel in any way...

If you go and do that for me, I can give you a rough estimate. if you want something ultra wide, be prepared to stretch some tires...

Rim and tire package for 2004 maxima

Sup, guys... Hey i got a 04 Maxima SL for a like a year now. Started doing some exterior customizing. I installed a T-REX Billet upper and lower grill... Tinted the glasses with 20%, and i would like to know, Can i go with a 20inch rims on this maxima which have never been lower before without it touching the wheel well? I don't wanna go low profile with the tires cause i live in NY and need me not say there's a lot of potholes . I would like to go the profile just before low profile, not sure what that is. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Sorry for th long post, i'm a new member here. thanks for the reply
