dude its really personal preference..you will find a lot of folks opinions but it is your car and you have to be happy with what wheels you see on it....I personally dont care for AME wheels so I would go with trafficstar but thats me so once again its just my opinion on those two wheels choices...I tend to like the older style wheels as I am into the older style of VIP and not the new style of VIP..such as high offset wheels I like SLOW off set wheels.....:shrug:

Whats up? I would go with air first if you didnt slam it already so you know the exact offset you can run to get the max lip since its a fwd car. Im not a huge fan of either wheel but I would go with the Trafficstars if I had to choose. Good luck

Problem is I have no car and wont have one til like early January cause its in the shop getting alot of stuff done. I can check it out for you but im not familiar with the car and how much it will camber when you slam it so I cant give u the exact offset to run. Im free on weekends though if your down

I would say the rtv out of those 2. i think a flat face wheel looks better when your offsets are limited. i also think the ame shallen ax would be a good choice. i have 19 x 8.5 +29mm volks on my mom's 04 altima. fitment is great but you could probably go a little more agressive with some camber.

Seeing as though I'm like the only other L31 owner on this board, I think I'm obligated to reply.

My old setup was 19x8.5 +30 front, 19x9.5 +45 rear. I had 235/35s all the way around, and the rears fit with camber that was still within the factory spec. My next setup, which I'm still deciding on, is going to be something a tad more aggressive, as I have Tein coils now (the old setup was on Eibach Sportlines), and a bunch more adjustability. I'm toying with the idea of running a 9/10 setup, but I've yet to actually calculate offsets.
