Tires and WheelsRubber, and lots of rubber in all kinds of sizes. What do you use when it's freezing? What do you use when it's hot? You want sticky rubbers? How about rubbers that will last a long time? Find your perfect rubber in here.
I think I'm gonna get them both from Tire Rack, already mounted and balanced. Grand total w/ shipping and Road Hazard is ~$1300; IMHO not too bad unless I can find them cheaper...
I have waited 4 years and been through 3 Maimxas trying to put rims on one of them, and these will be my first ones I should be ordering them no later than Monday, so hopefully I can have them by nexy weekend at the latest...

i do have to admit, it is a good looking wheel for the maxima, but everyone and their mom has this wheel...
Yeah, but IMHO there aren't many wheels that look even decent on a Maxima
Actually, I have only seen these rims on a few Maxima's since I've been looking - and there aren't that many Maxima's around central Fla anyway...
To me, the 350z 35th anv. rims look the best, but they are staggerd and EXPENSIVE; closely followed by these and finally most of the open, 5spoke designs. Maybe some of the 6spokes look ok, but other than that I pretty much hate every other wheel design out there on a Max; we just have hard cars to put rims on IMHO...

I heard that everybody had the MM EVO5's back when I bought the rims in my sig and that was in 2001, but I never saw them on any other car except on the org. They are mos def the best looking rim for the Max. I have a 2005 now and will probably get them for it.

Oh, I forgot to add I think I am going to go with a 245/40/18 tires size, and the rims are 8" wide. Forsee any issues??? The tire calculator says my speedo should read about 1mph slower than I am really going...
