If you have added aftermarket wheels to your Altima, please respond with the brand/model, size and offset of the rim, size tire used, year/model of vehicle, suspension and if you have any issues with rubbing.

Thanks

I got 20x8.5 ADR Hyperblack Propulsion wheels.. They have a +35 offset (LOWEST) and come flush with the fenderwall.. dropping the car would cause a rub.. The way i have it it doesnt...

The tires are Nitto Extreme 555s 245/35/20 and has a slightly longer diameter than the stock.

On my new altima coupe!

'07 Sedan 18x8 +45 offset w/Federal Super Steel SS595 225/45/18. Tires are a little short in diameter, about .3" or so. Just added 8mm spacers to run it out to the lip.

Alaron actually has 18x9.5 +24 off set and it looks mean. The thing that blows my mind is with that configuration, the new wheel extends 43MM more than the stock. That's almost 2" if you use a ruler and put it on the stock wheel and try to eyeball where flush would be, it's hard to imagine that Alaron got it to fit.

New owner of the SE-R wheels, same as generic but with Yokohama Y520 245/45/18 Tires. Pros: good grip/handling, flushes wheel well perfectly. Cons: probably will have to roll the rear fender to drop the suspension OR have to get an adjustable coilover.

This is what Im looking at:

http://www.tirerack.com/wheels...Brand

For a sedan majestic blue 3.5SE. The only thing is I cannot find the offset! If I planed to lower, eibach pro, then what max offset would be acceptable? Some help would be nice I have never bought rims before.

I saw this Maxxim wheels that i really like and they are very inexpensive. I understan about getting what you pay for but has anybody bought Maxxim Wheels. I know they are owned by Konig but are they really low quality and will break or crack. I do love the way they look

Alaron / 08 Coupe / 18x9.5 +24 Offset / Saleen S series (rep) / Stock / - Tires are TOYO FZ4's (245-40-18)

The Calculations notwithstanding Dangeris, The wheels barely stick out over three quarters of an inch. I totally agree that 2" would be ridiculous and am glad its not so. .75 inches is just aggressive enough for me without being too obnoxious. Apologies for the crappy pic





As for the wheels, Black Chrome is ridiculously hard to photograph aptly, but I've attempted to:

The light side...



...or The dark side..

Hey Alaron, Did you get a chance to test fit the rims before you bought them? Where I live, there is no shops that would do that so research and crossing your fingers in hopes it would fit is the only way of doing this.

Judging by your statement above regarding your rim spec, one would think that 9.5 +35 offset would fit our AC. Can someone else chime in and verify this?

Hey Dangeris, It was a combination of me doing the rough calculations myself, the store assuring me that they would fit as I estimated them to ( They apparently checked the specs of the coupe before they sold it to me) and keeping my fingers crossed as I really REALLY wanted those rims for the ride . Being able to fit these wheels on the coupe, albeit rather snugly, would lead me to believe that a 9.5 +35 offset wouldn't be out of the realm of possibility. Don't take my word for it though. Do you have a specific wheel/tire design in mind?

Yes I do have a specific wheel in mind and the specs that I was looking at were 18x7.5 +45 offset. Going this route, I know I wouldn't have any issues when I drop the car. Now I believe 8.5" +35 offset would be good too even with a drop but I didn't / never considered the 18 x 9.5 +35 offset unitl you posted your wheels! Thanks alot man It just makes me wonder where industry is pulling their measurements from when it says " would extend 45MM or 35MM more than stock" cuz like I said before, when I went on that online offset calculator, it said that your rim / offset would extend 45mm more than the stock. Since 25MM is 1in. 45 would be like 1.75". But looking at ur pics, they tell a different story.
