Would someone please comment on the pros and cons of the Nismo wheel for my Coupe? I currently have the stock 18" and like how they look and love how easy they are to clean.

How much lighter are the Nismos? Are the dimensions any different (can I use my current Pilots on them)? Any disadvantages to the Nismo? Is there another comparable wheel of similar weight and configuration for alot less money?

My priorities in order are:

1) Weight
2) Ease of cleaning
3) Sublime beauty
4) The money
5) None of those rivets or small cracks and hidden surfaces (see number 2)

Thanks in advance for any comments.

the 18" nismos are much lighter. I believe the stock 18"s are around 24lbs before tires. The nismos are just over 18lbs. This is a huge difference because were talking about unsprung, rotational weight. The nismos are 8.5"f and 9.5"r.

From the pics, it looks like they are very clean. The only thing I don't like about them are the extra holes around the lug nut holes.

The nismos run about 1800 + shipping.

 

Thanks al!

I am a complete tard with wheels so thanks for the help. Are my current wheels 8.5"f and 9.5"r? In other words, will I be able to put my current tires on the Nismo wheels, or will I need new tires as well?
