Possibly Buying These Wheels (Pic Included) NEED OPINIONS

[peteguy116]

So my buddy is selling these Montegi MR107 20'x9.5 and he let me try them on my A/C (as seen in the picture.) Tire specs are 245/35/R20 Nitto 555 Extreme ZR with air sensors. They are like new, were on his car less than 2 months (during summer, he put stocks on for winter) and are in mint condition. He wants $1100 out the door. I think its a steal. We put the tires on and there is no rub, a good 1/2inch + space at any angle.

Im looking for opinions on:

A) If you think these look good on my rideB) If you think this is a good dealC) If you think getting a 1 inch eibach drop will potentially cause rubbing?

Please post all comments and criticisms, I think they look hot in person but I want some unbiased opinions. Thanks in advance.

ehhhhh there ok how much tread is left any rim damage and how much would help this.....

[peteguy116]

I said in my post theyre $1100, treads look great like I said they were driven on under 2 months, and there is damage to one rim some scratching on the very outer lip but he said if I buy them he will have it professionally repaired.

[The_alchemist]

damn bro you car looks super low with you standing next to it, you have the coilovers?

[xfactor0707]

Ehhhhh im not diggin them too much but thats just my opinion

[dangeris]

damn bro you car looks super low with you standing next to it, you have the coilovers?

No man,..his car aint dropped. Phenom is like 8' something...

[downedzephyr]

those are the exact same rims that i have on mine, cept i have 18"s. I also run the Nitto 555's

I say go for it, especially at that price!

[Blackmobile]

20's with almost new tires and him saying that he'll repair the small damage on the one rim? you won't find that great of a price anywhere else. jump on the deal, as long as you like the look of the rims of course, look good to me.

5 star chrome rims look AWFUL imo. but thats just me

20 inch chrome rims belong on a Chrysler 300, not an altima coupe....

NOOOOOO for 1100 u coulda bought my rims new the old md2's i had so i think u should take that 1100 n buy a new set bc those dont dfo it for the car also maybe if they were like 6-700 but not 1100

damn bro you car looks super low with you standing next to it, you have the coilovers?

lol not yet i got springs..........but i am 6'10 1/2' so yea

No man,..his car aint dropped. Phenom is like 8' something...

[alphapig]

Those are very ugly

[peteguy116]

[PHENOMenalVinyl]

hahaha really 4 posts n u say this to a guy toxik whos been here BEFORE they even had a xcoupe specific section

were tryin to help n the polished lip is a chrome lip pretty much sooo yea either way its shiny n silver sooooooo yea still look like s***

[peteguy116]

I guess thats what I get for asking opinions. I didnt expect anyone to get all butthurt over me correcting them that these are in fact not chrome, and would expect someone who has been on these forums since before Al Gore Invented the internet to know the difference. And its kinda hard not to take what you say about rims with a grain of salt, since it appears in your sig picture like you are standing next to a car with hubcaps without the caps...Thanks for the input however, I do appreciate honesty.

[super_dn]

This is my opinion. i have the same rims so maybe this will help

I bought the rims brand new with 4 new tires for 1200

I really like them but I'm thinking about trading them in for something new, maybe I got bored of them I don't know. but good luck!

I have them in 18's

thats some good insight, thanks. How did u get these for 1200 new? I guess maybe since they were 18s but that still seems good deal.

[super_dn]

Well I think normally it was suppose to be more expensive. But since they took that tpms from my old stock wheels and the fact that I paid all in cash at one time, they cut me off a good deal.

I really like them but they honestly will look only good if you have springs or coilovers..

I hate it because you can see the brake pad/brake disk... and I don't know about you but mine always seems to have noticeable orange rust on it...but at night these rims shine and looks super good...

[peteguy116]

I wanted to come back here and apologize for coming off as a prick to you all. I actually am very grateful for everyones honest criticism, because after careful thought I realized these are not the right rims for me or my car. I was kinda starstruck by the great deal but had to pass because these just dont POP to my tastes. Thanks again everyone.

Are you serious? 20in rims look hella small on a 300, I know a guy with 22s and they still look small on it.

Dude 20inchs looks good on the AC I have 20in on mine, and there's still a 2-4inch gap between the top of the wheel weld and the tire, I would get some springs and lower it 1.5-3inchs depending on if your running low pro's or normal tires. The rims don't look bad on it at all, just get some big brakes behind it and color it black to bring out the black paint in your rims go with some Brembo's imo.
