I really wanted to go with the P-Zero 355's. But then I would have needed to go with wider front rims and about 295-305/ 35 front tire. Just don't have the extra $$$ on hand right now for that.

There we go, Installed my 325/30R19s (and the rear 285/35R19s in the front) on my factory Nismo wheels and drove a couple hundred miles already, couldn't be happier with my new setup

Why you should use these tires with NISMO Wheels: 285/35R19 (F), 325/30R19 (R)

It is subjective, but I really like the bulge...it looks more like it has drag tires on and is a lot more noticeable.

Also, I will say it again...let's not forget that we are in the "Meaty Tire Thread" :P
