Does anyone know the Kizashi specs needed for buying new rims? I am not much of a car guru, but I'm not a big fan of the basic gray rims and I would love change them. Also, any suggestions on where to find any good deals?

Tire Rack is always a good place to start to get an idea of sizes and styles

Please note you can have an actual discussion of your specific needs with a human.

I got a great package for my last Kizashi that I kept and installed on this new(er) one; TPMS included!

Make sure to find out what the offset, or backspacing is on the factory wheels before purchasing new wheels. I haven’t a clue what it is. You don’t want to get a new set and find out they stick out 2 inches past the fenders. Or maybe you do :roll:

My original 18inch kizashi wheels are 18". possible are anything from 16 tot 20
Original width is 8J or ". possible are 6J to anything you want but you probably want to stick between 7 and 9. original tyres are 235.. anything from 215 to 255 is no problem. Use a tyrecalculator online to see what wheeltyrecombo has the same total diameter as your original setup. Original offset is ET50(mm). You want tostick withh et50 to 30. I would recommend using et50 to et40. With very low et you will get extra wear on the wheelbearings etc
