2000 Nissan Maxima 17's??? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

Jvizy · 08-10-2011, 07:00 AM

Yesterday I ran up on a set of Nissan Maxima 17's in hyper silver with a set of Goodyear Eagles on them for $200. Checked the bolt pattern between my 01 Camry and a Maxima and they will indeed fit, just not sure how good they would look on my car. Wut you guys think?

Well other than the fact that the wheel says "Nissan" and you're driving a Toyota...

I'm sure they'll look ok if you get rid of the lug cover.

I had an idea on how to get rid of the nissan logo on the center caps. I thought about just taking my time to sand that area down smooth and then touch it up with some wheel paint. Just and idea tho.

Not a bad idea if you wish to put that kind of time into it...

But I guess what you'll spend in time, you've made up with price... Can't really beat 4 tires and 4 rims/wheels for 200 bucks.

I think. In the time you took to post this and wait for replies you could have put them on the car and seen what they look like. In steady of asking for opinions.

Well considering that I found the wheels in a pawn shop, i couldn't exactly take one and put it on my car to see how it would look. I just wanted to get a few opinions.

Check the wheel's center bore to see if they fit over the hub at the pawn shop if possible. A quick search show that the Maxima's center bore is 66.1mm and the Camry hubs are 60.1mm. So it should fit fine, but you might need hub centric rings. I'm more of an exposed lug nut wheel kinda guy but those Maxima wheel look good too; not too busy. $200 is not bad for a set of 17" w/ tires.

Maxima wheels will make your car faster.

i think they will look pretty good. prolly heavy as s**t but a good look. you should look up the offset to be sure though.

Id say bondo the center caps before trying to sand all that down. Itll be way easier and itll just be flat across the whole thing. I think itll look a lot cleaner too... For $200 you cant beat it as long as the tires are decent.

EDIT: it looks like you could probably just pop off the Nissan part in the center of the cap and that will just leave a blank space but at least it wont say Nissan
