I'm in love with your car, Brian. Merry Christmas, btw.

You're saving for a place in your area, huh...3 car garage this go around?

Than and to you to! I am looking for a garage with a house attached essentially lol. I like the three car garage setup, but it is very limited in one story. The extra garage isn't even really a garage but big enough for a work area. This will be next year and the house will need some work, whatever it is, but the garage is a big (no pun intended) feature I will be looking into.

He won't do it, I tried to convince him in person using force...he got me in a headlock with a decisive "NO, I am not opening up my lights!".

What were you at Acura for Bri? I need to get my new tires mounted this week/weekend. What service guy do you schedule with? I need to make an appointment and just drop off the tires and rims.

Yea I like the cleaness of the stock headlight. I dont want to screw with opening the light, they never reseal the same and dust gets in. I hate that at night when you can see the dust particles that settle after opening them. I guess also it is the fact that I just don't want to screw with it. The key with this car is too keep it as OEM as possible.

At any rate, I was at Acura ordering my extra rear lip kit.

not to take this too far off topic, but I'd suggest you getting the car sitting the way you want and the camber set the way you want before deciding on spacers...for every 5MM, figure about 1/4"...so when you get it where you want and roll or don't roll fenders, you'll be able to measure and see if you can make it work.

It depends on how far you drop it. The lower you go, the more the wheels tuck in. I measured how far I wanted the wheels to go out once I dropped it. So drop it first then get the wheel spacer. On my specific wheel, I could not go any smaller then 20mm.

No other wheel fits this car better, I have always liked the style of the new maxima's stock wheels, with the straight bar mesh, if that makes sense.
