if it cracked or got dented and was more substantial damage it would possible be cheaper to replace. that looks like it can be relatively buffed out :bowrofl:

The NISMO bumpers are beautiful, IMHO. I would repair and repaint the OE NISMO. Good luck.

Coulomb's model hasn't been considered an accurate representation for pneumatic tires since...well...ever. His model works well for "hard" solids, not so much for sticky, deformative surfaces. ...

Yeap, it is my DD and it is 52 miles to work one way. It puts a smile on my face every time I go to work. Makes the drive bearable.

I have got 265/35/19 Front and 285/35/19 Rear now. I am stepping up in size next set. My rears are just about done. I have over 20,000 miles on them and about 5,000 more to go before I see cord. LOL,...

You can always try something and if you don't like it, go a different route the next set of tires.

True. And they resist shredding better since the friction is spread over a wider area. It could be really important if the OP is going to track the car and really plans on putting major league...

Physics is physics. These friction concepts have been known since the time of Coulomb (18th century). You can prove the concept mathematically yourself using the formula I included above. Ffind the...

Nah. Tire-buying is all about looks.

Wider tires dissipate the heat better. So it takes them longer to get greasy if heat is causing the issue. If I were you I would go with the 285/35/19 on front and 325/30/19 on the rear RE-11 setup....

As to protecting the wheels, my S-04s protect the rims very well. I'll try to get a picture later to demonstrate. Friction (traction, in this case) isn't dependent on contact area between tire and...
