Default Nismo LM GT4 Limited Edition





It comes in Gunmetal color, the logo on the wheel (open "O") and it has a center cover, gives it the "ONE LUG" look

Now, my question is, can this cover be bought separately and fitted into the regular LM GT4 wheels, or will they only fit these Limited Edition ones, hence, the "Limited Edition" name?

Default Center Caps

Eventually they will probably be at performance nissna, but the gunmetal might no match the standard wheels in color.

Anyway I like my custom made set....

I saw those in a Japanese car magazine last weekend a friend of my bought in New York City over the holidays. We were wondering the same thing about the center cover. Based on your picture it looks like it would fit the regular LMGT4 wheels except for the two small holes, one on each side of the center hole. They may help hold the center cap in place. The center cap likely has two prongs on the back that fit into the holes.

I made my own center cap too. I found some black Nismo circular vinyl logo decals on EBay with the word "Nismo" in red and silver on it. They fit the center cap perfectly and give it a nice look. I got them from a guy in the UK who makes them for center caps of wheels.

I'm hoping they'll start selling the gunmetal ones over here - with or without the center cap.

Can't tell, is the gunmetal a good match for Silverstone?

there are no 17s offered. The version shown is techincally the GTR Limited Edition. Very limited #'s similar to what the black LMGT4's used to be. There were 200 sets made, and that's it. The RS Concept version Z has a 17/18 staggered setup though I am not sure if we can get the specific wheels they offer on it yet or not (everyone is at TAS 06 so no one knowledgeable is left at NISMO to ask!)

sizes for these pictured were 18x9 +22, 18x9.5 +12 - no other sizes were offered

I'll try to get you guys some pics in the next couple weeks on a customers R32 - we were able to get our hands on a single set and they went to a customer in the UK (white R32 GTR)

there is no info on them aside from what has been posted

if they had the staggered setup witht eh 17's up front, I would have bought them already. The 17's are not, however, available from NISMO, and that 18 inch size (with a +12) has no prayer of fitting on my car without redoing the fenders, which I am not interested in doing

Anyone with lmgt4 running 9.5 all around but with spacers in the rear. I was just wondering because the 8.5 aren't concaved enough for me. Concavity is what I love.

Would the lmgt4 +12 offset fit bbk's? I might be interested. I will rolling my fenders regardless anyways once I drop the Z, with my TE +22mm w/ 10.5

Agreed, those look like the GTR wheels.

I'm running lmgt4 9.5s on all corners. You don't need spacers in the rear (unless that's your thing). I'm running 275/35 front and rear (track setup).
