    Your car wasn't a manual???

    Yeah I love watching tow truck guys pull my cars up, the E30 he said he couldn't do because it was too low. I said no just do it anyway, he's like I can't be held responsible. I was like I could care less it doesn't matter. I ripped the front bumper off, threw it inside the car, and said go! lol

    The tow truck driver is pretty competent, It's chris from Zen and he can pretty much put anything on tow. Sonny's evo is lower than the Max, and it went up just fine. haha

    Car looks good bro, i bet its going to be much more fun in 5 speed!

    Car looks nice how it sits now. Never liked that body style of Maxima and the wheels aren't all that great to look at. But I like the ride height and the car isn't completely hideous to look at it.

    Overall, you get a partial thumbs up, lolol. Later, QD.

    Well this tranny issue is def setting me back from getting wheels for a little while....will be upgrading to 19x8.5's sometime this year. For what it is worth my wheels weren't cheaply spray painted, they were painted using a paint gun the right way....

    Everybody has different tastes, the next set of wheels will be a lot better though, i just got these because my stock 16's were pathetic....

    If you're original wheels were the 5 star ones, then I'd disagree. They look much better, but like you said, your car, your taste. Later, QD.
