the Asics Cumulus is a lot like the Nimbus, but you can find the Cumulus for 80ish on sale.

I run with both types of shoes. The Nimbus is better, thought there is not alot of difference between them. Also, if you belong to a running club, and you go to a good runing store, they will give you a discount.

so I heard that the cumulus has a wider? toebox, so if i upsize by half for nimbus, should i stay true to size for cumulus? seems to make sense...,
My experience has been that the two (Cumulus and Nimbus) fit exactly the same for size.
fwiw
