I can break loose in my 04 base and slide it quite easily. I would think it would be even easier and more controlable in the Nismo... Feint it and mash it..........

I would suggest buying a set of used 18" touring wheels & tires. You can get a set of 4 for about $350 and they will spin a lot easier than your bigger tires.

More importantly, you will have 4 tires to burn up for less money than 2 of your "good" tires.

They are all over the place for that price. We are talking stock 18" touring V1's here with Bridgestones, not for Nismo wheels or touring V2's. I tried to sell my extra set for $350 on the local board and they didn't move. It was the going price, but it may even be lower now. I'd much rather tear those up, than a set of good street tires and Forged Nismo wheels.
