wasup guys I hope no one makes fun of me for this but I had my old set of Maxima rims laying around and my neighbor hooked me up with free tires so I decided to put em on for fun. There 2002 Maxima rims painted black (half ass job) and the tire deminsions are 225/50/17. yea i know nissan on acura blah blak but i actually think it looks nice, sits perfect on the car. I also just did the fog light mod thanks to this website. so lemme know what u guys think of the rims. (sorry for the bad quality, cell phone pic dont own a camera)

 

they look like chunky off road wheels and tires to me lol. i like the look but not as a daily driven wheel.

 

also, that tire size will throw off the speedo/odometer. it is larger in diameter than OEM. if you really want to use those wheels, you might want to replace those tires with 225/45R17s.

 

yea there pretty chunky but it fit perfectly , i might keep em on for awhile then eventually go back to stock

 

yup i already researched it, it doesnt throw it off that much, if the speedo says 65 its really going about 63 64, i had 235/45/17s on the rims before but those tires where thrashed because i was young and dumb and loved doing burnouts and stuff

 

Slam it, and it may look decent!

 

nice crossover









oh wait.....

 

I think he may be right here. Many maybe surprised by the outcome, but then again a slammed TL is hard to mess up.

 

I like it man just a drop would set it off for sure!

 

Curious..how did you get that info?

Did you use an online calculator?

 

i wish i could drop it man, no money over here, 20 yr old college student with no job

 

yup i googled it and found a site but i forgot what it was called. but it worked

 

Oh yea better pics coming soon! After a car wash and some tire shine oooo weeeeeee

 

Quick question... how does a 225/50/17 throw off the speedo? The sticker in my drivers door jam says recommended tire size is 215/50/17... and I was under the impression that a XXX/50/17 is the same diameter as a xxx/50/17

 

50 series is the correct size.. not sure why its thought to be 45 in here...

 

It is but the width measurement can also throw off overall diameter...
Looks good and best of all...FREE!

 

Can we get a PS person on the drop?

 

can we get a better pic and not so big??

that is the best site i have come across to get stats on different tire sizes.

 

x2

 

your car is higher than theirs...
who are you trying to fool?

 

^ damn i didnt know they made a lift kit for the TL. thats at least an inch higher than stock in the front.

 

Engine is in the back.

 

Nice.

 

jea jea my car aint dropped cus da streets in NYC are horrible. after spring my car should be dumped..

 

i dont want to thread jack but is the tl-s stock suspension lower than the tl-p? if yes, than by how much?

 

^ I'm pretty sure they're the same height. If there is a difference, it'd probably be very minimal, less then .5".
