Now the debate is whether I should get 18" wheels and run a meaty tire setup, or 19" wheels with good ol' 255/40 square.

Congratulations on finding the 6MT that you've chosen. I'm curious, why the change from the Stance XR1's that you didn't previously install, to the Fortune 500's for the 6MT?

Here's 245/45s on 18s, not huge sidewall, and the tires are cheaper

Brad, didn't you originally have 20's on your sedan in a different wheel? What made you decide to go with 18's? Nice wheels! Make and size please?

I went with the Stance originally because I got a GREAT deal on them at the time. But I actually know people who are personally running Fortune Auto coils and I've heard nothing but great things about them. I figured I couldn't go wrong either way, and Fortune Auto was super helpful in helping me configure my setup.

The 18s I'm running are Wedssport SA10R 18x9.5 +38, I went w/ 18s for weight savings and wanted a bit taller sidewall to reduce the firmer ride of the 20s w/ thinner sidewalls. Would buy them again without hesitation

Thanks for the kind words!
Ok Z, back to your build

What kind of gains did you see?

I imagine traffic gets a lot lighter when that mod is engaged...

My custom 2-tone emblemless grille is finally finished! Can't wait to install it. Hopefully this weekend.

Nice job on the grill Zahy, as far as the pistol, If you could post in this thread and keep the build on topic that would be preferred, thanks!

Received my RJM Clutch Pedal yesterday! Should be installing it sometime next week, along with my Fast Intentions catback.

Still on the hunt for a set of wheels though.

That should look really good and aggressive on there. Looking forward to seeing them!

What sucks is that I called both Work USA and SSR. Neither of their 19x9.5 +35 wheels will clear the front Akebono calipers. I really don't want to run a +25 cause that means no 255/40 up front unless I run some camber.

So my best option is 19x9.5 +40 15+ NISMO wheels.
