So after a flat today and know the spare from the base won't fit over brembos (believe that is correct, there are 2 different ones right?). Is there any other cars that the spare would fit that I can grab out of a junkyard? Or do I just have to find a G35 sport model spare tire?

Thanks

G37S or 370z Sport/Touring with sport brakes. But good luck finding those in a junk yard. The 300z brakes fit on a g35, so wonder if the spare would work....

May go try to try a few sometime.

Noticed a local yard has a G35 sport spare locally, but listing it at $85 and on ebay they are going for $100+ each. That's insanely high to me for a donut.

Infiniti sells the rim and tire:

Tire: TBILL-S0559 Bridgestone T145
Rim: 999W5-JV000

Probably cost you an arm and leg new.

Yeah. Found a local guy with one, picked it up for $40.

Local junkyard listed at $85, told me $80 on the phone. Ebay is $100 plus shipping.

Insane lately.

Now to sell the 16" spare I have.
