dcash5 Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 What speed rating does Nissan recommend for tyres, at the moment i am running 'Y' which is up to 186mph, will all the will in the world limitless amounts of go fast stripes (and having the fastest colour) - Im not even gonna ge close to that!!! heard rumour that insurance is invalid if you dip below the intended speed rating set by the manufacturer! What are the stock tyres and what do people tend to run. Quote
Stew Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 I'd say stick with that. You don't want the insurance company to have any reason not to pay out! Quote
sl114 Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 +1, they will use anything to dip out of paying if they can Quote
dcash5 Posted April 21, 2008 Author Posted April 21, 2008 Is everyone else running y's cos these are the standard tyres you see, hence my query Quote
Sarnie Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 The standard 'stones are 91W front and 96W rear http://www.nissan.co.uk/NMGB/en_GB/site ... /specs.pdf Quote
AndySpak Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Mine are Z-rated but I've no idea what Nissan say they should be. Quote
Tere Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 I believe Z is W and above. W rated is stock since the Z speed limiter is below the tire speed rating. If you have the speed limiter flashed out and want to run the autobahn at 185, then switch to Y rated. Quote

If you have the speed limiter flashed out and want to run the autobahn at 185, then switch to Y rated. Surely a stock zed won't do 185? And if it could it would take about 10 miles, It took me 2 miles of runway to even get near the 155 limit....... Quote
