btw, do you guys know if the valve stem bore on our oem wheels are the standard 11.5mm / 0.453"

im wanting to get metal valve stems next time on my nismo's.

Isamu

I would assume so... since the typical air fitting mounts on it

yah, i had tires mounted on the nismos and they used the rubber stems that came with the nissan's package. the local tire shop didn't have decent metal stems... only those long-ish thin ugly ones. since the yok's dont last long, i just decided to keep the rubber stems to minimize handling damage by the tire place. didn't want to remount just for the new stems. next time though, i want to have the stubby metal stems mounted for sure...and going to take it to tirerack cause i know they have the nicer stems.

i have like 1.5mm left till 2/32, so im thinking by mid/late July im going to need to swap to my WEDS. when i do, i think i want to run 285/35/19's on the rear vs the 275/35/19's on there now... hummmm... thus scratching my head earlier. which then offsets when i swap my nismo's tires.

and gets all complicated.
