- Genuine NISSAN aluminum wheel is designed for each type of vehicle. Use it on the specified vehicle only.
- Use Genuine NISSAN parts for the wheel nuts and wheel lock nuts.
- Always use them after adjusting the wheel balance. For the balance weights, use Genuine NISSAN aluminum wheel weights.
- To prevent the balance weight of tire wheel from being flaked, make sure to apply aluminum tape over the balance weight, when driving at a high speed, over 200 km/h (124 MPH), and/or prior to circuit driving.
- Use caution when handling the aluminum wheels, because they can be easily scratched. When removing dirt, do not use any abrasives, a wire brush, or other items that may scratch the coating. Use a neutral detergent if a detergent is needed.
- Never wash wheels in a high-speed car washing machine.
- After driving on roads scattered with anti-icing salts, wash off the wheels completely.
- Rewash the back of wheels when removing wheels for replacement of tires or when cleaning the underbody of the vehicle.
- Be careful of the oil that contacts bolt and nut threads, or the nut seat.
- Never run over sharp objects, and never run over or rub against sidewalks or curbstones while driving.
- Fill nitrogen gas into the tires.
- Never use power tools when working with the lock nuts.
- When tightening the wheel nuts, tighten when the wheel is cold and tighten to the specified torque.
- When installing road wheels onto the vehicle, always wipe off any dirt or foreign substances to prevent them from being trapped between the contact surfaces of the brake rotor and wheel.
- Only if a snapping sound is heard from the road wheel when driving while the road wheel is cold, clean the surfaces where the road wheel and brake rotor contact each other and tighten them (when cold) to a wheel nut tightening torque of 147.1 N·m (15 kg-m, 109 ft-lb).
- When assembling the tire and wheel assembly, if the red mark on the tire sidewall is identifiable, tighten the wheel nuts so that the red mark faces up.
- If tire wear is uneven, explain the circumstances to the customer and obtain the customers approval, then adjust the wheel alignment.
- When installing or removing the road wheels to from the vehicle, be careful of scratches due to contact between the road wheels and the hub bolts, brake calipers, brake rotors, brake tubes, brake hoses, or other parts.
- When changing the tires, please recommend the users to change all 4 tires as a set, and always perform ID registration.
- Set the nitrogen gas pressure as follows:Front tire: 200 kPa (2.0 kg/cm2, 29 psi)Rear tire: 200 kPa (2.0 kg/cm2, 29 psi)
- Low tire pressure warning lamp blinks for 1min, then turns ON when occurring any malfunction except low tire pressure. Delete the memory with CONSULT-III, or register the ID to turn low tire pressure warning lamp OFF.
- Replace grommet seal, valve core and cap of transmitter in TPMS, when replacing each tire by reaching the wear limit.
- ID registration is required after the replacement of tires, transmitter, or low tire pressure warning control unit.
- Since real black color-coated surfaces are fragile and show noticeable scratches, careful handling is required.
- Since dark chrome color-coat has a special hue, it exhibits a chromatic change due to age deterioration and a wide range of chromatic variation compared with conventional wheels. Therefore, the hue of a wheel may differ when replacing with a new one.
- When a vehicle is brought in vibration condition, it is necessary to check with the customer for the history of hitting protruding portions and dents, such as road projections, and to check for wheel balance and squeaks occurring from the inside of tires. If there is a malfunction, the tire must be replaced.
- An internal pressure of tires is reduced depending on changes in air temperature and altitude, or a temporal change. Driving in sports mode with a low internal pressure is dangerous and may damage tires. Therefore, it is required to periodically set tire internal pressure to a specified value. Refer to Tire.
- Make sure to use the specific tires for GT-R. The damages or failures resulting from the use of tires other than specified tires for GT-R cannot be covered by warranty. Refer to the following table for the details of applicable tires.

INSPECTIONS REQUIRED FOR BEFORE AND AFTER SPORTS DRIVING

- Check for tire internal pressure and the positioning (rim deviation) in rotational directions for wheels and inner tires.
- Check wheel lock nuts, the valve nut and valve core of the transmitter of the tire inflation pressure warning system for looseness.
- Tighten up wheel lock nut within tightening torque of 147.1 N·m (15 kg-m, 109 ft-lb) before and after sports driving.
- Check tires for deformation, cracks and other damage.
