So it's time to get winter tires for my G, and this is the first winter that I've gone through with this car so I was wondering if a set of 16s would fit. Thanks guys. (Right the front tires are 225/45ZR18, back are 245/45ZR18)

Dayum 16's?? Are you talking about fitting them inside the trunk? You can fit like 6 maybe. Dont do 16's as you will prob lose control in the snow or something, and having such a small diameter wheel and having 240ftlbs on a heavy azz car. Find some oem 17's or cheap aftermarket 17's somewhere.

16" wheels don't affect the diameter! you'll be ok. Narrower tires offer MUCH better winter grip on ice and snow. Now finding a set of stagger fit 16" winter tires is gonna suck, so he is right in advising you to look for a cheap set of 17's.Originally Posted by speeddream

i believe the base model 2002 skyline comes with cloth interior, no radio controlls & OEM 16's so you should be fine.

They fit on non brembo. I used 16" steelies with 205-65-16 in winter-they rocked, sliced through deep snow like a knife.
