15" Wheels on '02?

Has anyone gotten a set of 15" wheels to fit on a 3.5L car? I've tried two different stock 15's ('90 Maxima & '85 300ZX), and they both hit the caliper. Keep in mind, the brakes are bigger on the 3.5L motored cars, so early 5th gen cars have more clearance. Was hoping to avoid going with 16" for snows.

Damn, 70 views, and nobody has any data? I guess the car is too new for anyone else to have tried this. Is there a Customer Service e-mail for Nissan maybe?

Thanks,

Brad

No one has had any success with 15's on an 02 that I'm aware of. Tirerack orignally had 15's as an option of snows on the 02. They have since changed it to 16's and 17's only.

Damn, what's this world coming to when 16's are viewed as "low-end snow-tire wheels"??? <g>

Thanks for the feedback,

Brad
