Hey all,
So I screwed up and in my mad dash to finish my QX60 rebuild a couple weeks ago, my dad and I ran to Pull-a-Part to get Maxima wheels (exact fit). All the Maxima wheels there were trashed, but there was a complete set of 04 Murano wheels which were in great shape, I *THOUGHT* (in 94° heat) that they were the same as the 18" QX60 wheels, but that only became the case in 08+.
The OEM 18" wheels on the QX60 have the following fitment:
7.5Jx18 ET50; 5x114.3; M12 x 1.25; 66.1
However the OEM 18" wheels on the 04 Murano have teh following fitment (difference bolded):
7.5Jx18 ET35; 5x114.3; M12 x 1.25; 66.1
My understanding of this all is that because the correct wheels have an offset of 50mm and these of 35mm, I'm going to need a 15mm spacer to bridge the gap and get the Murano wheels into spec, or am I understanding this incorrectly and I the winter wheels will simply sit 15mm further outwards from the center of the vehicle?
Newbie mistake.
