Great pic...been wondering what the 18/19 combo would look like in the Nismo wheels...wasn't sure how it would look because the spokes are so much thicker on the 18" wheels...but it really looks great.
Thanks for the comments. Here is a better picture.
Oh I already found that pic in the album earlier.....lol. Is that your car???
Yes, and by the way, I actually measured the width of the spokes tonight. It is an optical illusion that the spokes look narrower on the 19" wheel versus the 18". Measured at the circumference of the center polished hub of each wheel, the 19" wheel spoke is actually 1/8" WIDER than the spoke of an 18" wheel!!

So did you order both sets of wheels, or purchase them separately? I would really be interested in doing the same...I just have the 18s right now on S-tune suspension...but I have 5mm spacers on the rear wheels.

It's hard to find just two 19x9.5" nismo wheels.
I had already switched from the factory Rays wheels to these custom finished 18" black Nismo LM GT4s :
Subsequently, I found a set of brand new 18F/19R set of Nismos still in the boxes on ebay, so I bought them because it really bothered me that the spokes bowed in so severely on the 18" rear wheels. The 19" spokes are dished, but nowhere as severely as the 18"!
Wow you got lucky finding a set like that on Ebay...hope you got a great deal. What you mentioned about the "concave" spokes on the rear 18" wheels is what I love about them so much....it's what I actually don't like about the 19" rear wheels...spokes are so flat....lol. I guess we differ on that but agree on the 18/19 combo....lol.
