They look great. The 2011 sport wheels make all versions of 7th gen max's look great. I love mine on my 2010 premium model.What brand of caliper paint did you use? Anyone else paint thier calipers too? What brand is best for that solid wet look?

mmm, actually I think for right now till nissan change their price, i think these are the cheapest your gonna get 19" gun metal rims. unless you getting a a really nice crack head deal.

As for the paint, not sure what they used, its the second time, i put paint on it, and its not the greatest. If i do it again, i'll use G2 Caliper Paint Kit.

G2 is what you want to use, it's a two part epoxy and comes in a bunch of different colors.
I actually mixed the black and purple to make a custom purple that looks
real good (I think) with the Crimson Black of my car.

I've seen these Maxima Sport 19 and the Infiniti Gcoupe 19 both going for roughly a 1000 dollars, by all means he spent his money wisely considering he got the wheels from a dealer, you guys sound foolish with your replies cause the few sets I have found online are going for what he paid or less, and the sets for less are damaged

These guys do not sound foolish. Do you see what I ride on with my 6thgen? Look at my sig.

I live in Texas, but bought my 2010 gun metal 19s from a seller in New York for $1050 shipped!!! I can send you digital images of my rims and they are still SPOTLESS! And the stock goodyear tires that came with the rims have given me already 35k miles. And guess what? The tires are at 7/32! I still have like 20k to go with these tires if I wanted to. But I will be getting my new 255/40/19s (not stock the 245/40/19 anymore) soon. So, I will change them anyway.

So, you can buy these wheels from CL and they be spotless. Dealership is always expensive. But you get some kind of peace of mind. He paid too much money. But its his money and he can do as he please. But these guys are just pointing out that these wheels can be bought for cheap. And that is true! Buyers who use CL should normally inspect wheels if they are in excellent condition before they buy.

Looks like the only deal that your gonna have is, getting that price with tires, but since you buying new tires now, seems like your spending the same amount of $$$ like i did. can't always win when comes to spending.
