New Rims

Walkers06's picture

Hi everyone. Sorry for the new post but this was the only way I could figure out how to post pictures. I got my Quest about 2 months ago. It is a 2006 3.5 S Special Edition in Nordic White Pearl color. The wheels was the factory steel with hubcaps. The hubcaps look good, but I wanted something different. So I got a set of five star rims. The rims are 16's with the factory (GoodYear) tires. These rims was not my first choice, but they look pretty good on it. I had the tires filled with Nitrogen. This was my first time using it and to me, it does ride better than air filled tires. Once I put the rims on, it really exposed the brake calibers. I thought it over and decided to paint the brake calibers White to match the car color. I did it myself and it turned out really good. You can see the pictures here: Nissan Quest

I'm not crazy.

Looks good! Glad to see I'm not the only one interested in putting decent wheels on a van.

Good looking!

Good looking! My wife and I just took delivery of an '06 3.5 Special Edition last night and I was thinking of wheel upgrades already :) Were they expensive? And where did you get Nitrogen btw?

Wheel upgrades...

I live in Michigan. I got the rims from a place called belle tire for about $290 installed and out the door. I got the nitrogen from there too. I belive they gave it some type of buzz word name like "nitrozine", or something like that. It is just nitrogen. If you buy something, the nitrogen is free. If you don't, It is $4 a tire. You have to ask for it. If not, they will just give you regular air.
