Let's see...

$23.00 x 4 mount & balance "parts"
$5.95 x 4 mount & balance labor
$1.00 x 4 Florida Tire Tax - WTF?!
$4.95 x 4 TPMS sensor service kit
$3.00 x 4 TPMS labor
$3.00 x 4 tire disposal fee

Shop Fees - $9.26
Tax - $12.10

I'm surprised they didn't charge me for the air I was breathing!

LOL!

Well, I see it this way... With the typical cost of used Nismo wheels alone ($1800), and what I got them for, I still came out way ahead, even with the cost of new (much bigger and better) tires than stock and the crazy high Good Year bill.

I really wish Nissan wouldn't have dropped the ball on that. My Z experience could have been much nicer.

Yeah. The car I sold to get the Z was on its third CSC. I was like damn it, I'm not jumping out of the pan and into the fire.

I thought about it and then remembered that I ordered all the parts to upgrade my base brakes to sport brakes the night before

I know RJM that does the pedal has a HD master but there are known issues of premature failing on that too under certain conditions.

For the master the OEM is fine. In order to not void your warranty on the aftermarket CSC the manufactuerers usually require the master replacement at the same time. The claim is that the old master may be damaged or possibly contaminated from the previous failure which will re-enter the system and cause premature failure on the aftermarket CSC.

You can just source it at your local Nissan dealership.

btw good choice on upgrading your brake kit too! stopping usually helps haha
