I think they would, because dont some the of the sedan's come with 16's?

Obviously, it wont work if you have a sedan with 17" rims

Re: 16" tires on 5AT coupe

16" inch nissan steel rim can fit to our coupe without doubt. i tried to put them on in the tire shop, but decided to get 17" rim afterward (appearance reason). Now I am using Bridgestone LM-22, and I would recommend them to you. But the tires are little pricey though.

yep i put on ronals with 215/60x16 p210's

seems to work just fine.

less expensive than 17s with more choice, but not as ugly as the steelies.

16" Tires and Rims will only fit AUTOMATIC MODELS, NOT MANUAL!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but on the 6MT Performance (w/Brembos) you have to go at least 17" right?

I'm picking up my new G the end of this week, and was just going to put 18 LM-22 Blizzak's on the factory rims...

You have to go at least 17" with correct offset for your 6MT coupe

Re: 16" tires on 5AT coupe

I have a set (4) of Enkie aluminium 17" wheels with pirelli snow tire mounted. These have never been installed on my coupe as I put the car away for the winter and use my Outback Sport in the snow. Everything is brand new. I paid $2,600.00 plus tax = $3000.00 to the Infiniti dealer.

Will sell for $2000.00 cash firm, pick up in Barrie Ontario. PM me if you are interested.

Re: 16" tires on 5AT coupe

Your question has been discussed many times on this forum, especially by myself. Sure u can! I put Goodyear Ultra grip GW3's on mine, 16's of course with Steel rims for about $950.00, thats with my friend discount of course. Becuase our 5AT comes does not come rotors as large as the 6MT we can get away with 16's and of course save more money!
