Ehh..... the nismo rims actually have a more aggresive offset than the sport rays, usually they don't need as aggressive a setup. 20 and 25 might poke out a bit with the nismo rims, if I remember correctly I believe 15 all around was a decent setup for nismos.

Sorry about that. You are correct in terms of the Nismo.

I'm on swifts, rear camber kit, no front. FI CF and don't scrape. Just be slow with driveways and speed bumps and you'll be fine.

It should be a good fit. Add some oversized tires and it will pop.

Thanks guys. Unfortunately, my car won't be ready until tomorrow. Long story, but that's Guam for you. Hope they didn't mess anything up. The Nissan dealership has had since 1000. I'm just hoping it was a case of job priority mismanagement and not due to damage they're trying to cover up.
