Nissan Maxima On 22

My friend has an '04 Maxima with 22's (parts manager at my dealership) and he put spring extenders to compensate for the suspension travel so it wouldn't rub tires on a bump. Is it safe? no. Is it comfortable? no. But the wheels don't rub anymore and the ride is not as good but it is acceptable (because tires act like springs and are part of the suspension system; so if you cut down on the springs i.e. a lower profile tire, you cut down on the ride quality) . He hasn't complained at all (been 6 months). You really wanna ask a shop that specializes in putting these kinds of wheels on cars like maximas on a daily basis. There are too many unknowns and too many styles of rims to know for sure. Sometimes it's a matter of trial and error. You can measure things like offset and ride height and wheel clearance and all that but you'll still have to tweak here and there. The correct or more acceptable method to reduce wheel rubbing is to install heavy duty tall bump stops, springs for the application and better shocks. Spring extenders can cause the spring to break and tear a hole in the tire at high speeds, especially if you live in the salt belt or near the beach where rust can develop at the contact points.

Are you planning on doing some offroading? Why would anyone want wheels that big on a Maxima? Compensating for anything?

maybe a goodyear shop can tell u they measure the space the tire need. ur also gonna have to upgrade ur brakes beacuse the tires will weigh more and need more stopping power. its not gonna look funny, n if u lower the ride thats gonna look hella clean
