Great dry performance
Good wet traction
and minimum hydroplane.
I am running the Michelin Pilot Super Sports. Top rated by Tire Rack in Max Performance Summer tires, and the wet traction is outstanding. Expensive, but you get what you pay for, and tires are the only thing between your car and the road!

Great tires, and have a nice fat tread.

I will be sticking with the Potenza's from now on, the KDW2's have a great tire life but the road noise is not worth it.

This thread is for NISMO wheels only, those are WORK Equips:

I know you just started here but you need to spend some time looking around rather than randomly posting.

Yeah, gotta have the nismo 370 wheels for my track Z...any clue on what a fair price would be on a set from a nismo owner? With hopefully some decent tread life left...I'm about to go through a move, but once the dust settles on that I'd be looking to buy

There is actually a set FS in the marketplace right now.

Yeah, weren't they asking $2500? I would hope to land a little closer to $1800 tops, but maybe that's just hopes and dreams...

Anyone here goes without spacer? Would love to see some pics (without spacer). Just ordered a set of 19' LMGT4 and am not sure whether I should order spacer as well. Also on the tires, am thinking Falken 452 or Nitto NT555. Any comment?

There are a few examples at the beginning of this thread and I also believe a member named Spork has posted in this thread without them.

You can do an advanced search by username in this thread and I'm sure his pics will come up.

I can't comment on either of those tires so someone else will have to chime in.

I need some help guys. I have two lmgt4 18's. I have one front and one rear. Does anyone have one or both of these or know anyone who does so I can make a matching set?

If you really can't find another set I would contact Z1, they might be able to order you just two wheels.

I think you already have a WTB in the marketplace as well correct?

It's a tough find since you only have one of each, you might just have to buy two new ones.

Another option, (although it might be a tad odd) is to run the NISMO's one side of your car and maybe a set of TE37's on the other side? I see shop cars in Japan do it all the time...

There was a set for sale for only 750 last month. Don't know if it is still there.
http://houston-imports.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=629443
I know you only need 2 but 750 for a set of 4 is quite a bargain.
There are a few individual wheels on ebay but only in 19'x8.5. See if you can trade your rear wheels 18x9.5 for someone's 18x8.5 then buy two 19' as rear wheels.

Ever thought about overseas traders or posting at overseas sites? Costs may be higher naturally cos there'll be shipping. There's a trader called ZMANALEX at the 350z UK site. I talked to him a couple of times. He seems to be able to get his hands on some used wheels.
