Sentra SpecV Rims on U13 Altima

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

YEs I know it's the worst pic ever but it's the only one I have at this point.

I promise better pic this week. Also I installed my Magnaflow exhaust this week. Its a tame sounding exhaust but I love it. I won't wake the neighbors but I don't sound stock no more. More goodies coming on the way.

Better pics coming too.

Yeh cleaning those wheels is a piece of cake.

i wanna see what they would like on the 3rd gen altima, if they were only 5 lug, do they have any aftermarket wheels that look like that?

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

I tell you what will look hot on a 3rd gen. Those 18" 5 spokes off of the new Murano. They should fit since the 2 cars share the same frame. Just loose those truck tires and slap a set of low profiles on there.

hm, i never thought of that ,is there a site or something that i can use CAD to see what they would look like, and yea they would look good, but they gotta be kinda wide right?? personally i wanted the 6 cyl altima wheels would look fine if i could get my hands on em for cheap

Kinda off the topic, but how do you guys think those wheels whould look on S13? I've been contimplating that because my friend thinks they'd look cool and those wheels are growing on me

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

yea they would look bad ***, really coo!! however, dont go to nissan, i heard someone saying they wanted some crazy crap like $8oo for em or something, find an owner of a spec v whose willing to sell, honestly, i htink itd look better on an s13 cuz the car is sleeker and smaller, lets do it, and o yea, how we gonna pay for em??

Post by **jEzTeR** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

Very nice!Did you buy those?

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

yeh, I made a deal off of b15sentra.net. A guy in MI sold them to me for $2500 less than what the dealer was charging.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

25oo less, they cost that much to begin with???!!< how much did hte dealer want, o yea, looks bad *** too!

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

Each rim my cost new would have been $500 each. Retail is about $750 each.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

thats ridiculous, thats about how much a whole set of aftermarket 16s with tires cost, geez

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

That's why I went used all the way. The rims are mint. The tires suck but I'll replace those next year. I got the set for $500 including tires.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

o,well thats not that bad at all really, they look just as good as many aftermartket 17s anyway, $5oo aint bad, good deal if u ask me

whats IMG tag??

Post by **Altiman94** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

I like the spec v wheels but you need to gunmetal them to keep with your dark theme and also you need a stock spoiler as well rev.

Post by **Altiman94** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

I'm actually not much a fan of the greddy catback made for the 1st gen altimas, the muffler is too big and it doesn't even sound that good IMO. I like my custom catback's sound much better.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

i want to get a nicer muffler for my altima, but can't break down and get the whole catback, so i think im just going to go with the altima, but i dont want a riceburner sound

flowmaster

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

i was thinking the same thing, i figured either that or a magnaflow, or perhaps GReddy

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

Gunmetal or darker is the plan for the wheels this winter while they are off the car. With new rubber coming in the spring next year I can toss out the old baldies(or keep em) and have bare rims to work on. Also coming is the OEM wing. It looks bare w/o one. Nothing more than OEM. The concept behind this car is a really souped up OEM look for the car. Like if the SE altima was an Super SE OEM. No aftermarket crazy body kits, just a really hot OEM look.

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

sounds like we've got a huge fan of OEM stuff, of cousre i am somewhat myself, i want track model wheels on my altima, but i want 4 front rims, that way tehy're hte same size and i can still rotate

Post by **Rev_D21** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm

OEM!!

Post by **nlzmo400r** » Thu Apr 17, 2003 1:23 pm
