nah i have an authentic nismo. i ripped the bottom of my bumper off, however, when i was drunk and drifted over a sidewalk in a parking lot. i cut the corner too quick i was going to get another V3 but it's so expensive and isn't the greatest looking so i figured why not experiment with something else.

so the fenders will line up but the splash guards will need some modification is what yall are saying???

285/35/19 would be a much better choice to go with the 255/35/19.

best deal i could find were some new Federals 595's in 245/35/19 and 285/35/19, about $650 shipped.

do you think it would fit the 5 axis s5:F? because those are what im getting with the +22 and +20 offset, and the recommended tire size are the ones im looking for? would you say kumhos are good?
