Ooh boy. Way too stiff/low for me. Looks fantastic, and you really set that silver on silver off properly but I couldn't drive that every day. I'd have to raise it up a little and probably go minus 1 on the wheels and rubber bands.

Props for your threshold of patience.

I'm a fan of double d's, and this proves to be no exception. I'll agree with Sav it's a little low for me, but man it sure does look cool enough.

oh wow, i love the tire spoiler, not to mention the paint job. I have a feeling someday I'm going to own some sort of Nissan set up to drift.

DAAAAAMN thats so nice!! I was all up to buy those wheels in gold with the same spec but ended up buying 16x8 xxr 521 instead. Damn... I love that stance. Should go 195 tires tho!

195 would be to far stretched IMO .

DD, do you have any pictures for how much are the tires stretches from the rims ?

I'm getting the same set in gold ... Soon :)

Thx man

Custom spring rates courtesy of Micro Image - just for the record.

Depending on the profile size, 195 on an 8 isn't too bad

Here's 205/40/17 on an 8, just in case you are curious. The smaller side wall makes a big difference.

195 and 205 will both work great on an 8" (or 8.25" in this case) wheel. Just depends how much mild stretch you want.

195s on 8/8.25 are perfect!

To fit these wheels camber stretch and fender trimming is mandatory, just FYI.

The rear sway was a nice improvement and reduced the tail wagging sensation this car has during corners. Raising the spring rates seemed to reduce it more than the sway, but any reduction is a benefit.

195's could fit and depending on the tire brand may stretch more. Falken's typically run small so it may not be much of a difference. I wanted Falken (my preference) and 205/40's because they're so easy to get (also, falken doesn't offer 195 for this model anyway).

This is my daily driver so I intentionally kept it mild. I had my fun with the Z (215/35's on 18x10 and 255/35 18x12)
