Yup 19 x 10.5 +30 all around. Would need a spacer in rear to flush it, but gives ability to rotate tires if you wanted

Yup they are Volk G2's. I really want to swap them out for my nismo wheels and sell the nismo wheels but I just don't have the time

It's a great deal but I think I'll pass.

Yea, had to make several small modifications but it's all set now

Modifications sound like changes to the strut that were unintended by the manufacturer. Modifications or adjustments?

Modifications to the plastic battery/brake fluid covers and adjustments to the height of the mount point on top of the fender wells. The install is very clean though, no more stupid hood prop. :D

EDIT: Also, since I've done it already I'm happy to help anyone in the area that is hesitant or what not.

Let's get together for dinner this coming Thursday (the 14th). 7pm(ish) at Brixx. I'm inviting the Holden group as well, most of those guys you will have probably at least seen at Cars and Coffee.

Does anyone have experience with the Nissan Juke? We went to the dealer today and test drove a couple, looks like the girlfriend is settled on a new silver 6spd Nismo (I wasn't going to let a base model into our garage :tup: ). We will be picking it up Monday night if all goes well on the dealers end getting it from another dealer in Charlotte

I know it's high on my list of hideous cars that look like frogs. I've heard people enjoy them though.

I do agree lol. We kinda need something with a little utility since we have 3 dogs and I really don't want another large'ish SUV (trading in a Mercury Mariner) so this fits the bill pretty well.

And if anyone needs a car that's frog like in appearance, you're set. :cool:

While I would never discourage someone from buying a Nissan, my friend Andy with the GTR was in the same boat a couple years ago and ended up deciding on a Kia Soul. It's larger inside, cheaper to buy, cheaper to own and has a longer warranty. Having said that, I'm sure the Juke, especially the Nismo version, is probably a lot more fun to drive. My neighbor had a 6spd SV model and he liked it a lot. Traded it for a larger SUV as his kids were getting bigger but he did like it.

The only issue with the Soul would be the lack of resale value that Korean vehicles almost always have, otherwise I totally agree.

Have to agree with phantom on this one. Tha Bears! Tha Frogs!
If you plan on having kids soon this is not a good option. Those three dogs are not going to please your wife much longer. She wants some rugrats dude. Its just a matter of time big dawg.
Live and learn my friend...

:iagree:

So much truth there, every single one of my married buddies that had several dogs/cats now has several children. For most women pets are like a gateway drug to larger, longer lasting, and more expensive responsibility.
