Default Are these REAL RAYs wheels from NISMO?




They are 19x8.5 with +35offset

Are there any fake nissan wheel out there? Im about to buy these wheels and wanted you guys opinion before proceeding. How do you guys think it will look on a silver 98 gs300? I will probably need to get some spacers for the rear, but other than that what do you guys think? The seller said it weighs in at 19lbs.

Like everyone said they are. Those Nismo wheels are made by rays. Those are the Optional 19s for Maximas. They are being discontinued and can be had around $700 on fleabay. But they are non staggered wheels.

Something about NISMO on a TRD car....not feeling it. Now if they didn't have the NISMO sticker on it, it'd be ok.
