I just got my car today.

I actually got it 200 under invoice. Now I ordered some wheel locks and hopefully get the spacers removed by Monday or Tuesday. It is bugging me that Nissan did not include them with the purchase considering how much those rims cost.

I took the picture with my phone.

After a 20 mile drive around the city, and coming from an RSX-S, the ride is rough. It isn't rough to a whole new level but just a little more rough then my old RSX-S. This is of course with the wheel spacers. Hopefully it will be less rough with them off.

I love my car and I love how there is little to no body roll when turning. It feels like a REAL sports car rather than an econo box.

Once the spacers are off it isn't too stiff. Those spacers make it way to rough.

The suspension is pretty firm. If by wheels spacers you mean spring spacers then yes, it will ride better once removed. If you haven't seen it yet check the suspnsion link on my signature about the spacers the NISMO's are shipped with.

oops, yea I meant suspension spacers. I could only see one on the front passenger side. Hopefully that is the only one.

Congrats on your new purchase!

Also, check your tire pressure. The factory inflates the tires to the maximum pressure (55 lbs?) for shipping. Besides not removing the spring spacers, improper tire pressure is also common. Tire pressure should be 35 lbs.

Wheel locks came on my Nismo at no extra cost. You might want to challenge the dealer on this.

Congrats and good luck!

Thank's guys

THe car is pretty low as it is, I don't see why people would lower this car any further unless they want some sort of performance benefit.
