was cleaning my zed and came across the factory sticker under the arm rest on what tyres are spec for the uk models

mine is in factory condition with wider rears

at the moment the last owner put on there

fronts

215/55/16

and the sticker says i should have

225/50/16

 

rears

225/55/16

sticker says

245/50/16

i can see im ment to have what the sticker says but the car looks good with whats on there and sits nice

any reason why i should change before they need to be

if i had to change could i use the rears on the front and just get 245/55/16 for the back

anyone got any ideas

the Tyre size depends on the rim size (with some concession) but if you put the rears on the front how are you going to fit the bigger tires on the front rims?

or are you going to swop the tires over to the rear rims? and are they standard rims? and if not what size are they?

 

way too much rimming there!!! lol...

thats what i was going to do take the rear tyres off and put them on the front rims and buy new rears at 245,,ive the standerd uk rims with wider rears

Nissan do a lot of testing on their cars, if they put wider rears on the uk cars they must have had a reason to.....

 

I'd change em to suit the proper specs, as well as the recommended band.... But it depends how OCD you are and how the car currently drives :)

 

I noticed a huge difference when I changes the 205 for 245 on my s2000 (wider wheels made the pre 2004 s2000 much more progressive)

 

With my 300 I've got some wider 17" wheels on and the car feels so much better than it did on the 16" standards....

 

Good luck deciding :)

Recommended brand..... Dam iPad!

it drives like new and at a ton it drive as good not that i do it oftern but have done just the once lol
