What size optima are you running

I want to get an optima yellow top but according to optima and everywhere I looked there isnt one compatible with our cars. So what size are you guys running?

51r looks like it would be the right one but just wanted to check.

The Yellow top Optima only comes in one size and its fits. I went to Pep Boys to get one and they told me that it wasn't made for my car. I purchased it anyway and tossed it in for a perfect fit. Get it, it's a great battery.

That's what I was told that the battery only comes in one size. Get it and put it in your car and be done with it. If it doesn't fit, return it. It will ift!

My bad, I was wrong on the sizing. There are several sizes for the Yellop Top. The one that I have in my 2kse is the D34/78. I got it for $149.00.

The Correct size for the maxima is the D34A, however a D31A will fit for those running huge systems. The only penalty for the D31 is weight (63lb).
