Psi?

Will lowering the psi on my tires give me better ride quality? I feel like it would

If it's the rear cone we are talking about, I don't have mine on and it rides fine

I know if you drop it down to about 15 psi, your tires would eventually shread but it comes in handy when rock crawling.... Lmao

Im eyeing a set of muteki extended lugs. I assume the factory socket that losens up the lug nuts wouldnt work for them. How do i know which to get?

My nuts are 19mm so I just use a deep well socket, extension, and breaker bar to get them off. I think the stock nuts are 17mm


No homo of course...........

Those sizes refer to the length of the nut, not the width. I think the question of open-ended or close-ended is more of a personal preference. I prefer the close-ended style.

Best tire sizes for Rays? I want 245 in front and 265/275 in rear. I see some people go 40 series on both front and rear and some go 35 front and 40 rear... Depends on tire manufacturer maybe?

If i can find that "research" ill post it
Proven where? Read what I just wrote, Max Safe ENGINE RPM and Where Redline is set are two different things. Nissan did their homework I am sure, but if you can find any info on it, i'd be interested to read it.
