On a side note, I really want to see what my GT-R rims would look like on the Z. I would slap them on mine, but it's like 1400 miles away. Anyone here have the new GT-R gunmetal rims on their Z?

Google.

As someone mentioned, run flats can be one of the reason but you gotta understand, GT-R has a whole different suspension setup than the Z and it IS bumpier. When I first drove the GT-R (was all out at the track too), I INSTANTLY felt it was bumpier. I don't think nitrogen vs regular air has anything to do with that unless you overfilled it. Congrats on the GT-R :tup:

Hey thanks for that pic, synolimit! That rim looks sick on your Z. Yeah, I forgot they are run flats! I will run different tires once I wear them out. I only have 3700 miles on her so far. Definitely bumpier ride since I live in a city that has constant road construction and pot holes galore. Not bad at all on highway. I heard they made a smoother ride for 2015. Maybe I should've waited ��.

It's not mine, I just googled. With the color on the caliper I'm sure its photoshopped too.

You won't be able to feel a difference, nitro is just a bigger molecule than air so it doesn't fluctuate as much due to weather conditions. So you have to fill up less.

Just an FYI, "air" is ~78% nitrogen, 21% with some other stuff making up the last ~1%.

Damn thats hot!

Car looks great with those on it. Even more of a bonus that it was just a straight swap and nothing else had to be done.
