nice lookin ride.

quick question though, i have been looking at rims but have not been able to decide on what size. i wanted 18's but was not sure how they would fit. do you have any problems with rubbing or clearance of any kind.

I have no problem with the 18's on, no rubbing at all. I got the rims and tires at discount through my dealership, but if it was retail, about $1400, the tires are expensive as hell compared to the rims, I appreciate the luv!!!

Do they stick out at all? Could I get a pic from the front facing looking towards the back. Just want to see if the rim sticks out..even a little.

Are those low profile tires? Can't tell with the picture being so dark.

And please!!! lower your car. Or have that as the next thing on your list to do. Seems like those would look better on a 300c or some other wide sedan but maybe after you lower the car it won't stand out so much.

Right now your car is at the,

Person #1 "Hes got some nice rims."Person #2 "Yah but he needs to lower that car."

Right now the car looks plain and the rims look flashy. If you lower your car and/or maybe add a lip all around the car it would blend more. Just my opinion. like the rims those

Lain, please refer to my modifications at the start of my thread, EIBACH SPORTLINE SPRINGS are listed AND INSTALLED. The rims bring the ride hide higher, but the fender gap is at 2 fingers, TUCKED! I'll get better pics up to show the difference between one Versa with stock height with those rims and mine lowered with the same rims, holla!!!!

ya the fronts do stick out a little bit, from what i see with the camra angle. if you get some coilovers with camber mounts that should take care of that issue. for me when you cant even fit 1 finger between the tire and the fender then thats good for me.

are both wheels the same size? as in width? or do you have it so the rears are .5" wider then the front.

Me too, but I thought these are nice looking and thought I'd floss them on the V. Looking at getting 15x8 to go autoxross with.

Lain, the rims are the same front and rear. the eibach drop the V only 1.4" so the drop wasn't too low. Megan racing would drop it 2" but i didn't feel like getting hastled too much by the cops here in my area. I would love to tuck to 1 finger, but rubbing would be an issue then.

ya that .5" would have probably made the front ones flush. here in cali we have the fist rule. if the cop can fit his fist under your car then your ride hight is fine. just hope that you don't get a cop that has a big fist. springs are legal here but coilovers are a no-no. but i cant tell you how many cars i see a day that have coilovers.

Great that you have a sense of humor about yourself.

Versas are actually pretty nice for autocrosses. That was fun in my first V, even stock. (Just don't run on the stock tires, they suck)

looking at the wheels now, i noticed that they're the same ones that Hall Nissan pictures on their Versa "SEE package." does your dealership have a similar deal? looks like they add the Stillen front, rear, and hatch wing. not sure of anything else, as they didn't really have a listing of what it includes besides the Stillen graphics on the side...

Hall Nissan sells it for like $3k with the graphics installed. like $2.8k without. do you have a body shop? was thinking of just ordering the parts and going to a body shop. i'm sure the dealer install is WAY marked up
