I have the same set up for the rims and it's running 245/40 all around with no rubbing and they are a lot cheaper.

Any other reason you prefer this size besides price??

Alright, so I have a '04 G35x 5AT.

Already installed z-tube with k/n drop in and installing a PAC ipod adapter. Plenum spacer to come as well. What should I do next? Only spending $400 max so 1 mod is allowed. Looking for deeper sound for daily driving (not WOT) but also better air flow/exhaust production.

1. HFCs/test pipes
2. HKS Rear section
3. Motordyne XYZ

Mods to get next

I need advice on what mod to get next on my 05 g sedan. I already have a nismo r tuned intake, and a stock exhaust besides the muffler and my cat is taken off. I am getting money at least 1000 dollars for christmas and I was wondering what to get next. Any suggestions?

I'm a little confused. You say you still have exhaust work to do? If so finish that. No sense going on until you've finished the project you're on. Otherwise the two I would recommend would be a 5/16-1/2" plenum spacer, and a tower brace. I put in a Motordyne 5/16 spacer so that the tower brace would fit when I closed the hood. That's about $500. Then maybe a grounding kit, some tinted windows, painted calipers, or new rotors and ceramic pads to cut down on dust? If there is anything left over it will go towards gas. You're gonna want to drive it around a lot after the work is done.

If he got 1000 dollars play money i wouldnt do paint and small jobs.. nor would i do cosmetics during the winter, unless its really warm by you. Finish your exhaust, spacer, and get a drop, sway and strut bars..leave cosmetics for the spring.. esp DIY
