I have an '06, but mine came with 35th Edition Floor Mats. Much nicer than the O.E mats IMO.

35th floor mats are the same as these ones I think, it just says 35th on them instead of the Z emblem, why should i buy floor mats to go over the nice Z ones? Thats retarded, they should just stand up to the wear or a resting for for the clutch and when it moves to shift....

The stock tires and rims on my car are a certain diameter, like for reference say 20 inches together. Because I switched to 19's I should have gotten a tire that is a 35 series so it stayed the same diameter as stock (20 inches) but I didnt I got a 30 series tire which is smaller then a 35 series, so instead of my rims and tires being the same as stock (20 inches) they were more like 19.5 inches....because they are smaller then what the stock tires were and the car is programmed for that size, the car was thinking I am going more miles then I really am because the smaller size tire and rims spin faster because they are smaller then stock.....kind of hard to explain in words, but basically my car was racking on more miles then it should have been....anyone know how to calculate this?

Nissan gave me the 06 style mats with that hard rubber peice on them, they look nice and that rubber wont wear away like the clotch. Actually the cloth on these 06 mats is tougher then the previous ones....

I must, but **** I have had two manual cars, my VR4 Kragen mats never did this to me!

How do you shift, what possibly could I be doing wrong?? I mean, my foot HAS to rest there before I shift, when I go to push the clutch it it rubs for a second the comes off the mat when I push all the way in, and when I release the clutch it rubs for a second too, maybe resting my foot there before the shift and possibly moving foot on carpet into position worn them away, but I am almost 100% sure I shifted the same way in my 3KGT.

I love the 06 mats, and I dont know why that website uses a picture of some old dirty used mats to advertise the 03-05 ones, haha, I saw them when I was looking for replacements and was going to buy the 06 ones and said wtf?

I forgot to mention that the service guy that helped me out said he has seen this before, just people came in a little sooner haha.
