Oh no shit, obviously the dealer will quote that crap.

Also, most of the nissan wheels are Enkei.

Maybe when you start spending your money and not mommy and dadoo's you will learn to shop.

Didnt we teach u anything when you paid nearly 300 for what is essentially an oil change.

Been on the hunt for some wheels. Anyone know where I can find a reasonably priced set of Work Equips, VS-XX, AME WX, or anything nice? Prefer 19's....and have a budget of about $2k give or take. Help a brother out!

Really digging these, only thing holding me back is that the 19x10 wheels have a +61 offset.

I think they look ok. Not on a 2G tsx though. They look better on smaller cars like a civic or 1st gen tsx.

maybe back in the day on certain cars it looked good.
but not any more. or the lines of the TSX dont allow the VSXX to fully shine.
I know they look alright on my generation TL's...but some get crazy with lips and stuff

Finally got around to installing my coils. Been shopping for rims for a while too, I wanted vossen cvt or cv3s but they are played out and pretty over priced for what they are. Im looking into some Forgestar F14F 19x10+32 off a GTR.

How much more aggressive is the stance of X8 IRL?

pretty much impossible to find for 2k, need atleast around 2500 to get a set of 19's for any of those.

2013 ILX hybrid with tech, I like it a lot, the styling, the nav, the 38MPG would be nice. I didnt get to drive it yet but the audio isn't so bad nor is the car. It already has 40k on it and the materials aren't that bad. 36k for the hybrid tech is a lot but the mpg must be great if your light footed.

Fix it! (unless you are actually driving your TSX now)
It's actually more of a gathering of people with certain chassis than an actual show.

Just know that those super pilot sports don't give that much tread life... (from what I heard on M5board) but they probably do a lot of aggressive driving.

No, they don't. The ones on our G have not lasted very long at all...
They are very grippy though.

I just found out today, the Texas crew is planning one during the same time.
Stupid fucks.

if you're gonna throw a texas state wide meet, announce it before they announce the National kansas meet.

Now, I'm super torn because I want to visit Kansas, but you, texas crew, are my friends.
