5Gen 17" Rims
you can try contacting your local Nissan parts dept. thru your Nissan dealer. I think they run $1799.00 as an option at time of purchase. Im not sure how much they would run for you. Im at the dealership today, so i can check for you and get back with you on that. drop me an email and ill see what i can do for you, okay?

That was the reason that I was asking. I didn't want to alert people that they were on EBay and seemed very cheap. I just picked the rims up for $635, now on to tires. Any problems w/ Pirrelli P7000s? I had the P6000 SportVeloces before and loved them, but I want a more aggressive tire now.
Now I noticed the problem, NO ONE makes tires in the size that Nissan speced for the rims, 225/50-17s. I think that 245/45-17s should work, but has anyone done this? Any issues with the wheels sticking out? And what exactly would I have to change to pull them back under the car? The only other companies that sell tires in this size (225/50-17) are Michelin w/some tire that got a not too hot rating, Nitto, which I have heard some horror stories about, and of course, the ****ty RE92s. That's why I don't want to stay in that size.
Fire tires, the choice IS limmited. The only other one out there mentionning is the Michelin XGT Z.
The problem is, from what I have been told, that the Nissan rim is 7 inches, and the largest recommended tire is a 225. Some people have run 235/45R17 on the stock rim but it is not a recommended solution.
(un)fortunately I have enough tread on my RE92s to last me another summer, so that is a question I will have to answer myself next fall. (maybe get a deal on Michelins or Nittos or something)

My car looks exactly like yours, but I have a wing. I Photoshopped the rims onto the car and liked the way they looked. Now tires, and MAYBE lowering the car. Now that I look at it, it looks like an AWD car, but I did tell myself that I wasn't going to lower it.
