hey thanks! yah, im pretty happy with how it turned out.

i tried some photoshop to change the finish to other colors like gunmetal, black, etc but on these wheels the factory color seems to have the most pop.

when i changed to darker colors, the wheels looked kinda cheap. i will let my Weds do the dark wheel theme. hahaha.

When I started the car the navi screen was stuck on the opening nissan graphic just looping over and over again, no sound, no navi nothing, and the hvac was stuck on ac blowing full blast coldest air possible. Im taking it to the dealer tomorrow just wondering what on green earth could have caused this? Anyone ever have this happn?
very strange indeed. ive not had this happen or read about it. i would pull out the hvac and stereo fuses, leave them off for like an hour or so, put them back in, and try restart.

Did you buy those new? I know you were trying to work out a deal with a slightly used set as I recall.

thanks, thechidz. i was alittle hesitant with the nismo wheel color cause i have cf bits on the car. when i first swapped them out from the Weds (gunmetal wheels) the CF looked out of place. huge contrast between weds and these wheels. but after my head reset the nismo's looked fine.

thanks mr. happy. the nismo's fit very well on the base body style. it doesn't look sunken in at all in person.

the front is ET40, but 9.5" and wide shouldered tires make them appear like ET32-33 on a 9". which imho, is perfect for stock height.

same goes for the rear, ET23 with 10.5" but with 285/35's and wide shoulder tires they fit perfectly.

im probably going to get RE11's next on these.

No spacers? You running 255/40 up front or 245/40?

I really, really like. I have been in search of a set sorta half heartedly for a little bit now, but after seeing that? I'm all
