Our wheel studs are M12x1.25 and the Altima should be the exact same. Some of the ADR wheels have 10 holes. If so, make sure you're trying to mount through the lug hole and not the others. Look on the back of the wheel and check the specs.

The wheels line up perfectly to the studs. However, the studs are too thick. I took out all the wheels out of my Titan and started looking at the back of them. I found out that only ONE of the wheels has proper "holes" to fit my wheel studs. The rest of the three are all the same size..... From the looks of it only one got machined (or it was correct like what Allstar said) and the other 3 where left alone?

The top one is the only one that fits onto my wheel. The other 3 wheels don't.
So, with that being said. Can I get this machined so it will fit or should I just sell them and get my money back? I'm thinking if I go to a machine shop it should only be $150 for them to match the wheel that fits.
These are the rims http://www.maxspeedperformance.com/x...me.php?cat=174
They came with brand new tires on them as well. Their D7 Thunder tires. Offbrad tires but for what I'll be using them it would be for good practice

if they are the offsets listed on that site they are going to be around +42 to +48 and it will make your car look like a skateboard, if it was me i would offload them and find something else

who has 06+ headlights (that doesnt daily) that would let me borrow theirs for upto 5 days. i have condensation in my drivers and i figure now would be the time to go ahead and black them out. also toying with idea of just buying new ones, have those blacked out and then selling my current ones.

Zach - I see in the pictures that those are 18x7.5 +42offset wheels. There are two major problems here.
1. Size/fitment - same width as stock so there's no improvement. Higher offset than stock so a more narrow track with. Bad deal.
2. They don't fit. They are drilled for two bolt patterns, but apparently for an M10 stud and not M12. Don't spend more money trying to make them work. Due to reason number 1 it just isn't worth it. Sell them and use the money for an appropriate setup (ask us if you need advice).

So,ideally I would need to keep the offset around 30-35? What about under 30 on the offset? Just curious to hear your thoughts on that. On width I would probably need to go 8.5 or better. I'd like to keep all 4 wheels the same size so I can be able to rotate all 4, plus I think it would be a little cheaper for track/autox. I'd prefer to get a 17" wheel because tire prices are better, but no more than 18"

Offset all depends on width and tire size you want to run. Also how you want the wheels to fit. The Z can easily fit low offset wheels. You could ask us here before you purchase something well be more than happy to help.

I would pass on those. You can find plenty better. A lot of guys here run mb wheels. You could look those up.
