-Wheel spacers and 5 lug conversion.

Not to much to tell. Going into a drift .....a little to much under steer.... forced into the concrete wall. A learning experience. The front brakes locked up...so something was wrong with the rear. The car has big brake upgrade on it and has ...err had amazing stopping ability. If the back brakes would of locked up too the car would have stoped.

Dam that sucks. I lost my first 240 to a little oversteer. I love the Murano rims too. How fast did you hit the concrete wall? Hope you find another soon.
