How is it cutting corners? Do you not understand there is more choice, less weight, better turn in due to less sidewall etc etc. I'm running Pilot super sports I don't see how that is cutting corners? What tyres do you run?
Because you are not buying the correct tyre size which was designed for the car?
So the speedometer, mileage, traction control, torque and gearing settings are all based on the distance that the tyre travels over one complete revolution. A tyre with a different outside diameter will travel a different distance over that one revolution with a different amount of torque.
For an extra £30 a corner why not put the correct size tyres on? It doesn't matter if they are bloody F1 tyres....if they are the wrong size its a waste of time....
I agree that it might not make 'that' much difference dropping the profile down by 5 but it is cutting corners
What about buying wheels who pump out replicas? I personally don't have a problem with it but isn't it cutting corners? Surely you should stick to Oem wheels.
Can't say much else the posts above are spot on. It makes such little difference to alot of thr stuff but makes a big difference to weight. Pick up a wheel with 45'd compared to 40's. Heavier which is unsparing weight. Less sidewall distortion so a more positive turn in. The also look way way way better.
Now your just being silly....these 'replica' wheels are a perfect fit for the car. They match all the right tolerances/specs needed, exactly the same as OEM wheels.
Just admit you cut a corner to save £120?! Go on it isn't that hard to say! I will go first if it helps....'I couldn't justify spending £2k+ on Volks so I bought Rotas instead'.
apart from the fact there alot heavier than what the 'OEM' suspension and wheel bearings etc was designed to carry so your choice is more likely to wear out suspensions parts etc alot faster which i would say is more of a concern than a rolling radius change that wont effect anything other than speedo error, I know which one nissan would frown upon more from an oem manufacture point of view.
The colour at 2:18 then change the stripes the orange srtipes to fluo yellow and the pink stripes to a battleship grey and fluro yellow wheels bit like the gramlight 57D
my powerflow on my s14 was a joke the down pipe was made from about 5 bits of pipe all with U clamps and it didn't follow the body route for the exhaust it just sort of went anywhere, and the welding must have been done by a fresh trainnee having a go, Pigeon @*!# wasnt even the term
Same since going coilovers route ive only had HSD never had an issue and there great for the money, not saying bc arent as i cant compare But on my 350z is200 etc all had hsd and Driftworks Finance helped lol
Is it an issue the design is similar to the s14? If not give me a base colour you want and il work off if bud
Look at my post black
well i think thats what bizz is after
i dont know about chavs your area, but most places chavs dont tend to have ferraris
To be a chav is a mindset, not a financial thing. Look at Michael Carroll, for example
It looks cheap and nasty. Bolt-on wings should only ever be seen on race cars, they look unfinished on road cars.

Not because its on Nitto tyres not Michelin haha
Fair enough i guess i think its looks incredible, But then i like race car looks on the road.
Oh and btw, completely off topic, but talking of flying, rubbing things in and formula D....
I spent Saturday night in 2 bars with Jarod DeAnda, Vaughn Gittin Jr, Liam Doran, Terry Grant, Baggsy, Buttsy......
Still showing off
