Here's a hint. Don't put the heaviest wheels you can find on your car.

I was real disappointed when they dropped the turbonator. Cost cutting is eventually going to hurt Nissan.

They are for sell since VIP forged is making me another set of 20" with a 20"x13" rear (7" lip) so imma looking to get a new wide body kit.

Like the Dodge Daytona trucks with the "ghost chrome" wheels? It looks pretty nice

My honest opinion its pointless.

You will prob get better performance just changing the trans alone. Nothing against auto but if I got an auto Z it would be to cruise and to take dates out not to race.
