^^there is paddle shifters if you get the journey with the sport package.

 

IMHO, the S whether in the 6MT or the Journey with S is a must even if it's just for those gorgeous brakes!

 

S for sure. Even though I haven't rode/driven a G37 without the Sport option. The suspension on the S is great, even for a heavier car.

 

If I were in your shoes, I wouldn't get the S. 20-25K a year is a lot of mileage and it'll not only end up costing you more in tires, but also a rougher ride during your commute. Save your money and don't get the S.

 

Ohh, I forgot about that configuration.

 

Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Ftmfw

 

Looking at your projected use of the car, if mileage and tire wear are your only concerns, there is no reason at all not to get an S. Just because Infiniti places a staggered wheel setup on the car doesn't mean you have to. You could probably pass 245's or 225's all around on a much less aggressive summer or all season tire. You might not have as much traction patch on the rear but depending on how you drive it might not be an issue. I can reassure you that you don't need to worry about the stability or ABS systems on the car as a huge number of us with dedicated winters went the same size all the way around. I have 225's all around on 18's as winters and my car rides fine, it's an S btw.

 

i got 245 on 18's for winters all aroud

 

i would go 4 the s the body styling is wayy better

 

yea the front bumper makes the car IMO.... rims as well

 

depends which you think looks better. they perform the same as far as straight line goes. The S is a fraction of a second faster on the track do to stiffer springs and wider tires.

But if you plan to mod the **** out of it, no point in S.
