Not bad..but in my opinion, i wouldnt go with an 18" on the Versa. Looks better with 16 or 17 but hey thats me! But overall they look good.

Not bad, not as garish, flashy, and hideous as some of the other wheels on the market (you know the ones!), not a bad choice. I won't lie, I don't like the fake BBS-style bolts (unless it really is a split rim).

I think the wheels are nice. As for the size, when I bought my rims, I decided to stick with 17s because I thought 18s would be too big. But I then saw some sub-compacts with 18s and they did work pretty well. Then again maybe they worked because the spoke pattern.

In follow up to my questions I was looking at maybe getting the tires he is offering as well. Anyone heard of Nexen? From what I am reading on the web they sound like a pretty good tire. Any thoughts on width? I'm concerned about rubbing, even though my car isn't lowered. I know I have read that some people have up to 225's..

I ended up buying one Nexxen tire from Walmart when one of my original Continental tires crapped out at 615 kms. Finally took the Conti back to the nissan dealer and they are trying to get it replaced. This is gonna be a hassel but the Nexxen seems as good as OEM so far.

I really like those rims. The Versa isn't an over-the-top car and those rims are simplistic enough to fit with any color. Size wise, I'd have to agree. I think 18 would be to big. But a 17 would look good in my opinion.

Size isn't really the big issue. More important is weight. The V is no powerhouse... high rotating mass would just eat up precious power. IMO, modding to decrease functionality is a waste of $.
