Just give it some time dude, it hasn't even been a whole day since you posted this. Another piece of advice I'd give you is to come out to some meets and meet some more people in person. Maybe they will be more comfortable with loaning you a set after getting to know you. A lot of people probably haven't even seen this thread.

(once again, I will pay you if necessary)

*Will also hand-polish your rims prior to return.

@Blades you're 100% right - I'm just anxious

Besides, if it's gonna be garaged all winter anyway and you have another car, I don't see any problem leaving it up on jack stands for a week if it's not being driven anyway.

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

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

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.

Exactly..
