What do guys think for the NISMO.
I was thinking of 18x11/18/ 295.35.18 // 18x9.5 /15 /265/35/18.

Despite what the vendors claim, these TEs are not going for cheaper than the regular TEs.
Also, with the Nismo, I can think of other areas I would spend on to improve over the wheels. They're already forged and lightweight RAYS, replacing them with TEs is like switching from Crest to Colgate; it makes little to no difference.

I can tell you from experience.... That the stock nismo one piece forged rims are not lite! You wanna know what lite is?!
My wheels weigh in at 19 lbs each. There is a noticeable change in weight savings, a more aggressive look & less rotating mass.
Those are nice Rims. Go for it!

To reiterate, if RAYS/Mackin's intention was for the TE-37SL to be a cheaper version of the regular TE, it is a huge epic fail.
Vendors are quoting prices that are $3K+ for the SLs and if I'm not mistaken, that's pretty much the price for regular TEs.
