Default Sportmax 962s?

I saw a couple pics of these on here searching around, anyone else have info on these? I'm looking for them in the 5x120 mm bolt pattern... right? I think fbody is 5x120.65mm but i assumed it didn't make a difference really with that slight difference...

But, anyone on here running them? I was looking for 18x10" in the back, something skinnier in the front, undecided on if i want a 17" wheel though... not sure how it would look. Do they even offer 10" widths?

If nothing else, itd be awesome if someone could direct me to updated prices.. or a seller... thanks a lot.

me too... i really liked them in all silver.. idk how those gunmetal ones will look... it looks like they only make the 5x120mm bp in the gunmetal. i love the style/price of these wheels.. just wish they made 18x10 wheels or 17x11's.

similar wheels that come in 10"/11" widths in the rear? also some similar in price..?

Good Luck finding them. I got some 2 years ago, but the company I got them from doesn't carry them anymore. Also, I had a problem with the clear coat peeling on them pretty quick. About to put my TTII's back on.

I'd stay away from Sportmax, I've heard of nothing but problems with the paint peeling off after a couple years. Check out some import boards for more info, they are pretty popular with that crowd.

Yeah they are very popular with the 240SX crowd. I thought about buying a set and stripping the paint off/polishing them.

i have a set of 18x9.5 rears and 18x8.5 fronts, the clearcoat is peeling off 2 of the wheels and they are outside of warranty. im going to sell them off pretty cheap because of the clearcoat. no curb rash at all. you would just have to have them coated in whatever color you would like

After I get my TTII's back on I am going to strip them down and paint the centers black or either polish them. They only cost me $500 new so I have gotten my use out of them.
