You can also get a set of caps for $20 on eBay if something messes up.

Thanks, will try plastidip.

Also, OEM IPL centercaps came to mind, but they likely cost a fortune from the dealer. Wish Infiniti made black centercaps, or at least a aftermarket knockoff available that fits these wheels, but there appears to be none.

And yesterday my TPMS light went off during a little trip, didn't indicate low pressure, but the light that something is up with the sensors quickly pulled over & checked each tire, visually they looked fine. Woke up early this AM and front tire was completely flat Turns out shop didn't fully tighten the TPMS stems, but all's well now. Except that I need tire dressing

Grab yourself a pressure gauge for a couple bucks for the future, a lot of tires will look fine visually even though they might be down 15+psi.

^can't argue w you there, visual inspection is superficial at best, clearly it didn't indicate the slow leak I had on that TPMS, so lesson learned (actually do have a gauge in the car, but was in a rush so didn't use it ... poor excuse)

Looks great!

I know the S has different suspension than the xS, but how much lower is the stock ride height on the S than the xS?

IMO, you don't even need to lower it, but I am worried there would be more wheel gap on the xS at stock height than on your S.

I like your setup. It's exactly what I'm looking for. I'm also thinking of getting swift springs for my 4dr. How is the ride compared to stock and which spring did you get? How low is it? I'm also from NOVA. Who is the shop in Sterling that you recommend to install them? Sorry for the millions of questions but one final one. Is there any meets in the DMV area?

^Nice, looking fwd to pics, when tire shopping, TireBuyer.com had the cheapest prices for pretty much any R19 tire, make sure you search for "tirebuyer promo code", saved me an extra 8%, plus they ship free to your choice of local installer (they delivered in 1 business day). Four Conti DWS in 245/40/19 came in at well under $800 after tax
