Base 18" to Sport 19"
 
Few questions, as I'm interested in upgrading the stock 18" base wheels & tires to the 19" Sport versions ('13-'14).

Are the TPMS universal? Can I have the installer simply move them from my current set over to the 19"s?

Are the lug nuts compatible between the 18"s & 19"s?

Any issue with caliper clearance? I don't have the sport brakes, so I wouldn't think there would be an issue.


In case you were wondering, I like the look of the 13'-14' Rays, so I'm not leaning aftermarket. Plus I purchased road hazard, and verified it only covers OEM wheels & tires, so keeping it Nissan issued OEM will cover me there, verified on the road hazard document.

Thanks for your input -

Universal, No. Swap over from your current set.

Lugs are only compatible if you are going from stock to stock wheels. The correct lug nut for stock wheels has a washer included on the bolt.

Unless the TPMS sensors on a base are different than the Sport and Nismo, They're the same and you just have to have them programmed to the car. It's model year that there's a change.

I'm looking at a set that won't include sensors, so wanted to know if mine could be move over.

Ah. I misread that. Just move them over.
