Rattusmaxim Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Hey, I've been lurking around here since getting my Z back in May(ish) but not actually posted anything, so hi. Also i've been searching for an answer to this but it's so hard to try and find what i'm after. Anyway...i'm thinking about upgrading to some Rota GTRs in either 18" or 19" but my wheels at the mo are 17" and i'm wonderting if there's anything I need to do when changing size in order for the readings (speed, mileage etc) to stay true as surely this stuff would get affected by changing the size of the wheels. Any help would be appreciated, Cheers. Quote
Ebized Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Welcome to the forum In answer to your query check this out: viewtopic.php?f=17&t=62 The second link has some really useful stuff on wheels and tyres and on the 2nd page there is a calculator to give you the answer you are looking for. Many ZED owners have upgraded from 17" (on import models only) and I am sure someone may be along who can recommend a good set-up they have used Quote
Rattusmaxim Posted December 28, 2009 Author Posted December 28, 2009 Cool, I'll take a look there. Recommendations would be nice though Quote
Stew Posted December 28, 2009 Posted December 28, 2009 Cool, I'll take a look there. Recommendations would be nice though Contact Rare Rims or search for Rotas. There are a number of members with Rotas on here and tyre sizes etc are well discussed. Rare Rims are a Rota dealer and are sure to give you a good deal being a meber of this club! Quote

M13KYF Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 RareRims are traders here on the forum. Look in the Pro Traders section Quote
Rattusmaxim Posted December 30, 2009 Author Posted December 30, 2009 Have PM'd Rarerims about either 18s or 19s, awaiting a reply now, cheers. Just gotta decide what would be best, would like 19s but not sure if they'd go with an otherwise stock Z, although I am gonna be getting a Nismo V1 spoiler soon too... Quote
rich5259 Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 my cars is "stock" and I've got 20" wheels for the spring Quote
SunGodRA Posted December 30, 2009 Posted December 30, 2009 I do like these: viewtopic.php?f=113&t=30012&hilit=rarerims in 19" from Rarerims - definately go for 19" and keep your old wheels for winter use Quote
