Sumi's are a cheap, well performing tire.

I get to paint my car sometime next week! yay. I'm scared because it's my first time painting anything, and I'm shooting for BLACK. Everyone says that's not a good idea. I guess I'll find out.

well i wish you the best of luck. Youll figure out like me that black isnt going to turn out well on a 15 year old car. Im shooting for yellow... like maybe the 99-04 mustangs, or the c5 corvettes.

Good luck with the yellow, I see few 240's that are yellow and worth mentioning, hopefully yours will turn out better though. I think it will turn out great

Okay, say im not going to paint it yellow. What color would you suggest. Im looking for something that will hide door dings, but wont be overly flashy or expensive.

Black is really nice, lol. White, gold, green. Just look at all the OEM Nissan colors. Like that rare purple/blue color on some s14's.

I like yellow with black wheels, and other trim things. Like black spoiler, lip, skirts, etc..
