Hey steve, do you park that car at your HS? I would imagine getting dings and keyed would be a greater possibility in a HS parking lot regardless of whether there are M3s, vettes or any other expensive cars there.

BTW, huge lip wheels look smaller in diameter, but they also look aggressive..so thats good. I like certain big lip wheels and other no lip wheels like the gravis I.

btw oem rays with spacers have no tuckage.

Hey all,

Just logged in and saw all this info. Thanks for the replies. Yeah I really like the look of the OEM 19s. And we can't argue with the quality right? And I really like Oh6 G35s pic with the OEM 19's and Bridgestones with the 1" drop. I was thinking of dropping my ride and that's exactly how I'd want it to look!

Another Q - I'm doing the oil consumption testing now and if I get a new VQ I'll be going twin turbo. Will the drop have any impact on driveability, especially if I go FI?

Thanks again,
B

I've driven here in TX without a front plate since I got my license (8 years) and have never had a problem (...knocking on my desk as we speak...). The only way you'll get a ticket for it is if you get pulled over by a State Trooper who is bored and hasn't had his morning cup of coffee yet.

^Your powdercoated OEM 19s are sick! They look amazing on your ride.
