Awesome price for the Nokias Tauseef. Was that from Steelcase? I got my WS-50s and alloys worked into my deal when I got the car so not really sure what my price was. The Nokian Hakkapalettas were my other choice but at that time I couldn't get them in my size.

No I got them from Delta Tire in Rexdale. A friend referred me to him, he gave me a great deal, and now I refer everyone I know. I've given him some good business lately!!

The Nokians are great in the winter, no problems last year. I put the WR's on my Brother's QX4, no complaints from him and he also loved the price!

I'm assuming the guys with the 16" winter tires are the sedans? The coupes need at least 17" rims right?

I've been told that 2005 Sedan can't take 16". Dealer said it would work, but I'm sure I read on here that it wouldn't.

I believe the X still has the old size brakes, so the 16's probably work on those.

Sedans- Albert is right. The 03, 04 can use 16" rims, and the only 05 model sedan that the 16" will fit is the 05 G35X.

Coupes- only the non Brembo 03 and 04 coupes will accept the 16" wheels.
