Default Nismo Wheel Locks vs Sport Wheels

I've done the digging and read about the TSB requiring the Flat Washer Style wheel locks on the 370Z.

The other question I have is if the 19" Nismo wheels use the same wheel locks as the 19" Sport wheels. I'd love to pick some up for my ride before I head out of town and want to make sure I'm not going to have any issues.

Thanks in advance for a speedy reply!

I'd pull off one of your stock lugs and take a look. I believe they are since the nismo wheels that Mike the powdercoater got use the stock lugs as well.

shoot, just bring a star wrench with you and spin one off in the parking lot at the dealership and bring it in. Tell them to bring you the wheel locks for the 370 and compare them to make sure they look the same.

Installed them earlier today, worked like a champ. I went to the Nissan dealer down the road and they attempted to give me the 350z wheel locks when I asked for some. Went to the Infinity dealer and they had some. Apparently even the newer G35 shares the same flat washer style lugs.
