NISMO wheels of VDC equipped Touring
I have a Roaster Touring and would like to put on the NISMO wheels. I have read that in order to do that, I should also install the NISMO stabilizer and suspension kits, or otherwise VDC is not going to work right or something.
Anyone have any comments on this?

That's Nissan BS. The VDC will be just fine - If you follow their recommendations for tire size. 245/40/18 front and 275/40/18 in back
BTW, if you haven't bought the wheels yet, PM me, and I can get you a super deal.

Nissan's just covering their **** with that claim. They used to say that the S Tune suspension wouldn't work with VDC equipped cars, but that was only because they hadn't done any testing yet (plenty of forum members did, and we're all still fine--lol). You'll be fine.

They work great on mine. 245 / 275 . Use the recommended stagger and you will be ok.
PS thanks for providing me another excuse/reason to post yet another pic of my Brickyard.

eek! So we are talking about a $3000 upgrade?
$3000.00 upgrade
Dont think of it that way.
$2000 for the wheels, $1000.00 for the tires and then sell your wheels and tires.
I sold my track wheels and two good tires for $1500.00, so in essense I olny need $1500.00 for the upgrade.
See ya
