Anyone running the Nismo 18" wheels 8.5" up front and 9.5" in the rear on a 6 Speed Touring Z with the VDC? Does it work okay? Any problems? Also, did you move the tire pressure sensors to the new wheels?
Many Thanks

Nissan recommends 245/40/18 on the front wheels. I would think that the recommended rear size (275/40/18) would work with 245/45/18s on the front. 275/45/18s would maintain the proper stagger as well if they are available.

I'm running 245/40/18, 275/40/18 Goodyear F1 GS-D3 all around.
No VDC issue at all.

I am running them . . . but the first thing I do when I get in my car is switch-off the VDC. I have taken a few laps on the track with it on by mistake and there were no issues
