Tire and rim size

steve1ddd · 11-12-2011, 04:57 PM

Can you put a 17 inch rim and tire on a 2009 370z touring. i am thinking about doing this for a winter setup. more importantly, should i do this insted of sticking with 18's?

Do you brakes say "Nissan" on them and are they dark gray metallic, or are they like every other brake on every other car? If they say Nissan, no you can't/ Otherwise, yes.

^^^^^This is correct.....If you don't have the sport pgk, which includes 19" wheels, a wing (trunk spoiler), front chin spoiler, LSD, and the larger brakes. Then you don't have the sport brakes and you should be fine with the 17's.

Thought the 18s were your winter set op?
