I have my Nismo tires/rims off now for winter but I plan on getting my rims powder coated over the winter and will need a fresh set of rubber on them...looking at the RE-11's in those sizes. My original OEM S0004 tires have about 18k miles on them and my rear tires are just about worn out to the thread wear indicators so I can't use them up front. Have to go with all 4 new.
Currently I have a set of Blizzaks LM-32's (square setup 225/50 R18's) on my car for NJ winter that I just got from tirerack w/ A9 rims for about $1500. I'll be riding out the winter with these.
Now I just need to find a sweet deal like JaviZ did on eBay and I'll be all set!

Thanx! Since I'm running my current setup I have installed spacers. I put 10mm upfront to get them really flush and I put some 2.5mm in the rear just because, can't really see a difference there. Works great without spacers but I just wanted a wider front track and to have a flush look. My rear Hankook V12s were pretty camber worn down to almost nothing on the inside and I'm still driving on them well over a year and 12k later lol. With stock suspension the front doesn't camber anything like the rear so the tire actually starts stepping on the unworn outside when you put it in the front and you can get a lot of life out of an otherwise worn out "rear" tire that way. I would recommend using your rears upfront unless you want to shell out over $1200 for a brand new set all around.
