Hi all, Just bought a 98 Pearl white GS400 tonight. I used to have a Infiniti Q45 before tonight. I had a few questions
1. Where can I get the rear spoiler or one like the one that is the factory option one? About how much is it and what is the cost to paint one & install it?
2 I have the 16 in wheels and would like to upgrade to 17 or 18 inch rims. However ride and comfort and quietness are very important to me. How much will I sacrafice doing this and what tires and sizes would you reccomend. Performance is secondary to noise and comfort and looks. I already have a sc viper when I want to wrap myself around a pole.
Thanks for your advice
Kevin

2. Your in Cali, go to a meet and ride/drive some members cars. I've driven, ridden in 16s and its comfy. To 17s does make a difference, IMO for the better. The ride suffers a lil but not much. When I went from 17s to 18s, I could not tell a thing.
The usual upgrade is 245/40/18 front and 275/35/18 rear/
Just take your time to read the GS FAQs and you'll see all u need.

When I was contemplating wheel purchases, I was gonna get a 245/45 up front and 265 or 275/40 out back.....
Even on 19's, I'd want a 245/40 all around, as running a 35 series would scare me considerably. Maybe it's a NY thing
