warranty coverage

No offense or anything, but what's up with you and worrying about voiding your warranty? Due to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, the dealership has to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the part in question (aftermarket wheels in this scenario) is a direct cause of the failure of an OEM part (suspension in this scenario). If they are not able to prove that your aftermarket wheels were a DIRECT cause for suspension damage or failure, then they legally cannot void the warranty granted to you by Nissan. Having aftermarket parts on your car alone is insufficient grounds for any dealership to try to void any part of your warranty. If a service manager ever brings it up, feel free to contact Nissan USA.
