Yeah i'd support an angry letter to nissan asking wtf and threatening today tonight action.

If it was extra for the 19's i def wouldn't have got them but to now come as standard issue... ><

I wise person did once tell me to never by the first gen of any car... should have listened

Though on the brighter side (those who use the car as a DD) we do get better ride compliance, slightly less noise and cheaper reshoeing costs... who am I kidding, I'm pissed off...

Update: thinking about it the 19"s on the new car make sense. Then people can't ask for extra discounts due to the tariff reduction... the government just paid for the larger, prettier shoes... Considering I was fully prepared for the fact that the price may drop due to the tariff reduction, I'm now at peace with Nissan's decision to hold the price and re-shoe the thing... i couldn't have waited til April to take delivery, I had to sell the polo before the new polo got announced else my resale price would have been smashed.

However, If people want to start a mass movement at Nissan I'll be part of it to add weight to the cause.

Just thought of another positive... my wheels are far less likely to be stolen now =)... yes i'm still pissed off
