As for this whole TPMS issue...frankly I think it's a formality that only benefits house-wives who wouldn't notice a flat tire if it hit them in the face. If the 370Z still showed each tire's pressure individually, I would have bought the sensors. But for a system to tell me that my tire pressure is >25% below the ideal pressure and to NOT say which tire it is...well that's just a stupid system. I check my tires frequently enough to find a problem anyway. Hell, I've driven 13 years without a TPMS system. The times I had a flat, I knew I had a flat. G35Guy84, I took the tires back myself to save the return shipping cost since South Bend is only 90 miles from me. I suppose you could always just take them to a local UPS Store and have them quote it for you. Knowing what you paid to have them delivered, I bet you could get the same deal. Just make sure you tell them you're shipping to a company/business...it's always cheaper.

Wow, I love that bottom set of rims. Does anyone know if there is somewhere in Canada that would sell them? I'm looking to get some winter tires/rims in the next couple of weeks, and if I can find the set on that bottom pic I think I have a winner. |

I just finished ordering my tire and wheel package from 1010tires. I got the Sport Edition F10's with Blizzak LM-60"s. It was looking like the tires were starting to sell out. I won't get the car for a month or so, but I want to make sure I have winter shoes for her when she arrives.

225/50R18 Tires, 18"x8" 5/114.3 Rims. You can call 1010tires and they can check fitment for your care as well. Tirerack.com has a winter section that you can enter your car and it will tell you the right tires and rims for your care.

One thing to remember, if you are driving on different non-OEM wheels, your space saver spare will require the original lug nuts, so you should put some in a baggie and duct tape it to the spare.

I just put in order for a set of SE A7s .. They're not as good looking as the ones in the picture but hey, still functional~!
For canadian buyers, it still comes out to be cheaper to buy it from tirerack as their price to canada include Tax/Duty etc... Exact same set up from 1010tires came out to be $1900cad+tax whereas tirerack $1780USD including tax. (which comes out to be around 1900cad tax included) Last edited by sinceday1; 11-02-2009 at 08:29 PM. |

I recently put my wheel/snow package on - bought from Tire Rack with the TPMS. This is the second package I've bought from them with TPMS (the other was track tires for my other car). I've swapped the wheels on the other car numerous times since last spring, and have about 30 miles on the Z with the snows. The TPMS light has never triggered on either vehicle. I wonder why others are getting different results.
