Hi guys,

this is going to sound weird to you guys,

when I went to the major brand website, and input the year, make, and model for my car it comes up with 195/65/r15. And when i went non major website and did the samething, the correct info came up as the info in the place we nissan put it. So what I did was, to get the correct size for the car, I had to change from 90 to 91 in order to get the correct size for the car.

Did anybody else experience this kind of thing.
Did nissan do some kind of experiment on the 90 and 91 models.

GXEs came with 195s while SEs got the 205s

Maybe someone put 205's on it before you purchased the car?

maximagxe90

Hmmm... I just checked my wifes gxe and it says 205's also,so internetautomart's info is incorrect maybe?

I check some of the website like costco and the major brand, and they say for the 90 gxe it is 195. And non major brand it is 205

You know,it seems a little silly to worry about why certain websites call for a different tire,when others don't.


Just buy 205's and be done with it.

195 will have better mpg
I read it in several places that the GXE had 195 (can't remember which years tough)
eh, it's all elementary anyhow. Unless you are doing some serious racing with serious tires the 4mm difference in treadwidth will make no real difference

225/50/R17's are where the party's at...

handling and grip FTW...and BTW, my gas mileage is still 29mpg HWY with the larger rubber...
