Altima rims? Are they OEM or aftermarket?

^ The rims are aftermarket.

^^ G/Unit, it looks like from the picks the offset on those wheels might be high you should get a small spacer like 5mm to 10mm to push them out some or is it that you don't have springs on?

no spacers ill never install any spacer on my car with stock wheel studs... i ve seen too many bad incidents at the dealership when someone has spacers and the wheel studs can't support the weight since it is pushed to a weaker point.

my drop has a negative camber so gives the wheel a more aggressive look.

I'm getting some nice jdm wheels when the weather gets warmer so you'll see how they look.

hey da mayor,

cant believe you have no problems with the front splash guards. when looking at mine, you can clearly see that its been bottomed out. i'm gonna take it off soon...then maybe lower it some more

those 18" 5-spoke wheels are my OEM wheels.




i drove this through NYC with 3 people in my altima and no issues scraping. takes lots of practice dipping through potholes and dips.

so splash guards are no problems at all.

Nice pic Gdup! I like how the gold sevas flow nicely with the IP color of the car.
