Angry Nissan discontinued 18" Nismo Bronze wheel - Need help!

I need (1) bronze 18" x 9.5" .30mm rear.

I have tried all dealerships and no one has them except for Esserman Nissan in
Miami, FL 33055 but they wont ship.

Any advice? There has to be a placed that has one at least.

I tried ebay and no luck.

Do you have to have new or will a used one do?

If used will work, try a WTB thread in the Marketplace->Wanted forum.

Otherwise, post in the South East Region forum and see if you can find a local Z owner that will pick them up and ship them to you.

Nissan has discountinued the LMGT4s.

Good luck finding one at a dealership because they sold them off at $150/wheel. I was having my rims replaced under warranty and was going to have the replaced with the LMGT4s but Nissan themselves could not located more than 2 of them in the US.

Get in touch with someone living in MIA in the regional forums and have them pick them up for you and ship them.

Not only I live close to Esserman but I bought there 2 350Z. Long story short: I bought the first last January and 3 days later, a lady decided to use my car as the emergency brake for her full size, extra cab, long bed Chevy pick up truck while I was waiting for a stoplight to change. Then I went ahead and got another.

I can help you but you'll have to trust me. Easier said than done but regretfully I don't know what else to say. If you want some kind of reference, call Esserman and ask for Pepe Gil. He is the one that got commissions from me twice in one month. I suppose he will still remember me (Paco Melendez).

If this sounds like something you would consider, PM me and tell me how you want to do it. And don't worry, I am not expecting anything in return. Maybe, the day I get in a similar situation, someone will be willing to help me.

help you out. Esserman is reasonably close. You will be fully responsible
for paying the dealer direct with your CC and then paying the UPS store
I drop it off at, again with you CC. PM me w a number to call you. Can
only help if they're open sunday. Can drop off at shipper monday.
Also... try brinster on ebay. he should be able to help.

Thanks for the help guys. They only want cash. They don't take any credit card which is weird. Would one of you mind dropping by and checking this out for me. I would pay your gas. I tried to have them fax me a bank transfer form but they never sent me the fax and honeslty that sounds strange to me that they would not take a credit card.

Part Number: 4030S-RN89220 (Bronze RR)
(1) bronze 18" x 9.5" .30mm rear

I dont have much to offer but if you guys do ever come to vegas I will get you in to see any cirque shows and a great discount at circus circus hotel.

It's all good, Rota has you covered with the P45R. The 19" Rota P45 wheels are almost out and the 18" is still readily available

As a matter of fact, I have a couple of minor things that I need to get repaired under warranty so I will try to go to Esserman today to make an appointment and find out about your issue as well. I'll let you know in the afternoon.
