Im thinkin about buying a 5 speed 99 Nissan Maxima. But the rims on it are hideous. And since the supra is put away in a warehouse so i can work on it, i might use the rims if they fit. Does anyone know if they will fit? And can anyone tell me what kind these rims are?

EDIT - Ugly ass rims

Oh noes!
are those 20"'s? You could probably sell them on ebay to a ricer for a hefty penny and buy us all new rims.

Lol yea, i was gonna sell them and buy some new rims for the supra. I was lookin at the Motegi Touge rims in 18x10 rears and 18x9 front. I kno they are heavy but its a price to pay to look good. Unlike these god awful 20s lol.

Lol. Im definitely getting rid of them. No doubt about that. Its a nice car other than the rims. It's still not final if im getting it. But if i dont ill prolly steal them off the car and then make ur video of me burning them and then dancing around them. :biglaugh:

I just want to point out that the Supra's wheels are not considered "RWD" offset. They are a high offset, and most people would consider them "FWD" offset.

MK2: 7" wide, +8mm offset
MK3: 7" wide, +37mm offset

It's still a mid-range offset, not high, but even so. Another prime example is the MK4 with it's +50mm offset.

Find out the stock width and offset, but I have a feeling sawblades would probably fit if the bolt pattern is correct.

^I'm with Jeff...I put my rims on my RSX while my Supra was in storage and they almost looked better on it than they did on my Supra.

Not "almost", Troy... They do!
Those wheels don't fill out the rear of the Supra very well...

As for Maxima wheels: NO.
I tried with my 92, and the hub is larger than the hole on the sawblade wheel.

^I agree...but right now they are all I have. I am going to be looking for something staggered (18"'s?) in a split 5 spoke...I'll have to get them powder coated white since it's not as popular as it was 4 or 5 years ago when I got those ones. But in my defense...the alignment hasn't been adjusted since I lowered it and the camber makes them look worse than they are...but I still agree.
