Hello. I have already tried to post a question about this topic but did not have any luck getting an answer. My question is which one of these rims ( http://www.tiresbyweb.com/p-8050-msr-st ... heels.aspx ) will fit on a 2009 altima coupe. I believe I saw somewhere that the 4-100 & 4-4.5 would fit but I have no idea. Also, will I need wheel spacers to fit these? Lastly what are some relatively cheap but good quality tires that would fit, and what size tire would I need. Oh yeah, (sorry) but would I have to re calculate the speedometer if I put these rims on? Sorry for asking this question again, but I really want to get these rims on before school. Thanks so much :)

As long as the total diameter on your NEW wheel+ tires is equal to the total of your STOCK wheel+tires there is no need to readjust the speedometer. It's calculated by the total number of rotations your wheels make. So by the two being equal, there will be an equal number or rotations.

As for tire choice and wheel choice..when I got mine, i was not very familiar with the inner workings and the technological aspect of cars so I didn't understand much. But it really helps to go to a dealer or someone like that who can help you choose the correct tire to match the rim to keep the same diameter.

Sorry, but I don't like the rim choice :\ and I wouldn't go with 20's. I think 19's is the biggest you should go...you should read through a few threads on the forum regarding this issue or any other issue you have in the future. It helps out a lot and it also gives you a lot of info prior to asking further questions. And trust...you really want to stay away from asking easy and simple questions lol...people call you out...sometimes...:)

Alright, I didn't think this was a stupid question because I have seen people on here with these rims such as: post5693847.html#p5693847

So I'm guessing one of these wheel patterns will fit but I don't know which one. As for rim size, I would prefer to get the g37 19's however, they are way more expensive, so why not save a few bucks, and go up one size on the rim and actually I'm starting to like these rims more.

So please if you can help in any way, I would just like to know which one of those rims would fit, and if I would need wheel spacers. Thanks.
