There used to be a shop near my house that did nothing but rent wheels. Rent'n'roll was the name of the place. Pretty sure they went out of business.

Last winter was extremely mild. We barely saw precip that froze.

We are meant to have a much heavier winter this year.

If you do drive during winter and are on stock rubber, drive safe and responsibly. The stock tires are summer rated and will slip easily in sub-40 temps.

Especially if you have the appropriate tires on there.

I have my stock 18s sitting in my basement right now.

dmhenderson · 09-20-2012, 07:06 PM

Don't think my tires will fit your 18"s unfortunately - unless you already have tires on them.

eastwest2300 · 09-20-2012, 07:06 PM

DM, there you go bro... get with starbux.

dmhenderson · 09-20-2012, 07:09 PM

Yeah unfortunately, I think the nismo wheels have different/larger tires on them than the base 18"s

eastwest2300 · 09-20-2012, 07:16 PM

If hes got rims & tires, they might just work, even if they are just 18s.

dmhenderson · 09-20-2012, 07:18 PM

Oh yeah if he has tires i should be ok so long as I avoid speed bumps.

I met a guy with base '09 wheels on his nismo for non-track purposes and he didn't seem to have fitment issues.

eastwest2300 · 09-20-2012, 07:29 PM

Exactly..
