blizzaks for my dd nismo
 
Which ones should I be getting? I would rather no swap rims if I don't have to but do blizzaks even come wide enough for the rims on a nismo?

The Search works really well. This has been covered as the Z has been around for a few winters now.

Thanks.

Blizzaks come as wide as 275. What size tires are you looking to run? The LM-60 is what most people are using on the Z.

Stock nismo rims.

I would invest in a separate set of wheels for winter. You can put together a setup on TireRack pretty cheaply. You don't want to run a very wide tire in the snow if you can avoid it.

I guess in Pittsburg it is...:confused:

kenchan 04-24-2012 04:39 PM

dang.... yes, LM60's in 245/40/19 275/35/19 would be my choice if on nismo wheels...

JAYNO20 04-24-2012 04:41 PM

Never said it was snowing... Just getting my facts straight for when it does. :)

So that size tire would be OK on the nismo rims?

You should really runa thinner tire in the snow, at the same time the sidewall should be taller, so you will actually get through the snow, you could run base wheels, but that would be the biggest i would go. And to be honest, i would just get something else for the winter, im from NY, and i wouldnt try putting the Z in the snow not because i dont trust myself i just dont trust other people. spending 500 on a POS might save you thousands...

Did you end up getting them? Im
In the same boat now, im trying to decide $500 car, or blizzaks?

90 ST 11-07-2012 04:42 PM

i was in the same boat, Z in the winter? yep! i found a nice set of 350Z wheels, 18's and run a 225/50/18f and 245/45/18 r for winter on those. Clears the sport brakes AND looks good. :)

NissanGuy23 11-08-2012 08:41 AM

Because of how expensive 19x275/285 tires are, im considering buying some cheap 18's from the base 370 or even 350, need to figure out which models fit over sport brakes
