Default 3 wheels

So I recently bought a set of wheels for the track and bought these for $300.

S-Tune Wheels San Francisco

Unfortunately the one front can't be fixed due to stress fracture. So I have one S tune front and two rears.

What would one do? 1) Replace both fronts possibly allowing for a square set up, 2) try and find one S tune front (out of prodution) which will be tough? Or option 3) which is where others chime in.

Thank you in advance.

I found this. Unfortunately, the one wheel looks to be 50% more than you paid for three of them

I would just run the S-tunes in the rear and find a set of Enkei RPF1's for the front if you can't find another S-tune front wheel

I was looking at this. Is this the one I need to mate?

My wheels are off a base 2012 370Z not a Nismo. Are the Nismo wheels different?

They look the same. Except yours does not have the Nismo stickers.
S-Tune is a Nismo wheel, just different from the ones that come on a Nismo.
I find it hard to believe those came with the car stock. Previous owner must have put them on after, or the dealership did. who knows, but they would not be stock.

I agree. The S-Tune wheels did not come stock on the base model.

Damn... The other eBay one ended...


Call Dustin@Z1, he helped me out. You can try allfactorywheels.com and see if you can lowball them?

THEN if you want a square setup, maybe we can set something up... I'll see if anyone on the Altima/Maxima forums wants 4 fronts, then you can ship 2 and me ship 2, and I can ship my rears to you
