Random Little Question Thread
You won't get anywhere near 280 to the wheels with $1000. You'd need to build your motor adding cams, headers, etc to get there. I have spent way too much money to go from 220-260 but I love my car. Mods I have done to get there:
MD 5/16" spacer
MD V2-2 ART pipes
MD resonated XYZ
MD resonated mid pipe
MD TT VQ sedan exhaust
R2C intake
Osiris tune
GL............

Usually around 3 gallons, though it can vary from one car to the next, level ground, etc.
If you want to check it, cruise around town just before your fuel light comes on, driving normal (not gunning it) on level ground, and just as soon as the fuel light comes on, immediately fuel up at the nearest station.
Subtract the number of gallons it takes from 20. That is your margin.

How long would you say it's safe to ride on (3) 235/45-18s and (1) 215/55-17? It's my full size spare and it has a brand new tire on it. The rolling diameters are the same.
The 18s are 350z stock wheels so I'm sure the weight is around the same and wheel width differs by 0.5"
It's on the front left if it matters.

What dyno was that on? Your also probly 6mt which give you an extra 20hp right of the bat over 5at. Im at 367 to the wheels on a mustang dyno but ive spent over 7k in the last 5mnths to do it. Gotta put my enkeis on to see if i can gain some more and put the meth kit on
^ I have that issue also but never cared enough to investigate.
I have about a $700 budget for winter wheels, already bought the tires. 215/55r17
What are my best options?
Any suggestions are appreciated.
Marketplace hasn't been too helpful since I'm on the east coast.
Also I was given the option to buy core OEM 05 sedan wheels and have then painted any color I choose for a good price.
Sound worth it?
If so, what color would look best on black obsidian?
All input is welcome!

I have the same problem. Tried fixing the rubber beading on the door, but no effect on wind noise. Still can't figure out what is the problem.
I am off to investigate heh, Ill report back on my findings.
