where do you guys go to get new tires mounted? Nissan wants $20/tire. I looked at Discount Tire when pricing tires, and they wanted $15+$7.50 for TPMS rebuild kit, for $25 per tire (w/disposal fee). NTB is $22.50 with disposal. Any experiences with scratched rims, etc.? TIA.

Discount tire should cost 15$ and you do not need tpms rebuild kit. I bought it and I highly doubt I needed it. Should be 15$+2$ disposal at DT. I made sure I watched them in the bay so they wouldn't scratch my wheels.

Yeah, the TPMS kit seems like extra coins in the bucket for them. I wasn't sure if you deny that, that it would void any type of warranty they may offer on their services. Thanks Q.

Ok,

so the results are in....you guys see for yourself.

Pics of the lowering from the Tein H Springs. Subtle, But much nicer look.

* Again, I was not intending to Slam the car down.....only to have a subtle drop to eliminate the excess tire gap from the fender.

Remember I was 4X4 before !
