i think the gunmetal will look sick on your max.

I've always been a fan of gunmetal wheels

black car with gunmetal rims=sex

brake dust doesnt show either

mine were dupli-color graphite painted:



edit: the picture doesnt do it justice. thats after sitting in a lot for a week

I say gunmetal for sure.

Here's a pic of silver though, couldn't find a gunmetal pic:

[lasoski311]

thanks for the pic....that pic actually makes me want to get silver, but i know gunmetal would be pretty bad *** looking too

[jsmithsole]

Yeah stick to gunmetal, they silver stand out a bit too much.

here's gunmetal on wht (I know it's not the same but...)

Usually I'm a fan of lots of black, but I think the silver looks excellent in this case. If it were my car, I think that's the way I'd go.

You dont like the black Rims?

I had chrome on them before for a little under a year but decided to change it up to black rims with a metallic chrome lip. there 18's but you said 19's which is even better (if you actually were thinking the possibility of all black rims) for a black car with black interior and possible black tints with smoked out lenses...that would be pretty sick. im sure your maxima has a fresh paint job which always makes new rims look good to.

[jsmithsole]

Switching from chrome to blk tomorrow...standby for pics!! woohoo!

[MinisterofDOOM]

You dont like the black Rims?

No, I definitely like black wheels. I just happen to like this particular wheel on this particular car more in silver (NOT chrome) than black.

I had actually planned to paint my Q's 6-spokes (the ones in my signature) gunmetal this past summer but they were too hard to get clean, so I'm going to have to wait until I get access to a sand blaster to clean them up.

Just my 2 cents - I've never liked black rims. To me they look like dougnuts.

"They look too much like donuts"

If you have a 10 inch black rim then yes, they may resemble a donut. But i dont think people are buying 10 inch black rims.....lolBut if you get the right kind they definitely stand out just as much as chrome or any other type. its all about the right choices, DONT BUY RIMS THAT REMIND YOU OF DONUTS!!!!

[jsmithsole]

Just got mine on, and I think they look nothing like a donut!!

[MinisterofDOOM]

[D-Maxima]

WOW looks totally different. I like it! Makes the car looks lower some how.

[Nissan6Maxima]

DAMN jsmithsole, thats one fresh maxima. and yea, those rims dont look anything like donuts. Black is definitely nice. good choice on the from kit too and the black grill....VERY NICE!

[jsmithsole]

Thanks all and sorry to thread jack...back to your originally scheduled thread!(I'll go start my own!)
