I'm shopping the 19" S (staggered) wheels and would like to know if I can run tires of same size on all 4 wheels.

If so, what is the best tire width for this application? I have an AWD Sedan. I did want wide tires in the back but obviously if running all 4 same size the limiting factor is the front. What is the maximum width I can run in the front?

 

I have a similar setup on my Maxima that has a staggered setup with wheels from an '03 350Z. The rear wheels are wider than the front, but all 4 tires are the same size.

What are the wheel sizes on the X sedan?

 

What size are the tires? What size are the rims?

You mean the stock wheels? 17".

The S staggered wheels are 19x8.5" front, 19x9" rear I believe. I'd like to go as wide as possible with the tires but have no idea what that limit is, both for the wheels and the car.

 

will having the same width tires on F and R reduce the understeer?

 

why dont you just buy 2 front pairs or 2 back pairs. no point in staggered rims if your running same size tires all around

 

Didn't realize you were a Maximaniac, too!

 

On my car the wheels are 17"X7.5" and 17"x8".


235/45/17 tires all around on the Maxima.


On staggered G37 S wheels, I'd go with 245 or 255 all around if I were going to use the same size all around.

Unfortunately, no.

Had a '95, still have a '96, and may buy a '10.

 

Easier said than done. Good luck finding those, and for a reasonable price.

I ended up picking up the wheels today. I've decided that I won't do same size all around, so now I need to match front/rear tires.

Just as I had settled on 235/35/19 Front, 275/30/19 rear (within 0.02 inches front/back in total diameter- should be perfect for AWD), I realized that there are two big problems with this setup-

1. They are a whopping 1.25" smaller in diameter than stock. That's a huge difference. I didn't lower the car only to go back to wheel gap
2. The speedometer is going to be ~5% too fast.

The speedometer discrepancy I can live with, but I can't give up wheel space. Back to trying to match up front/rear tires... any suggestions, please share...
