I am planning to upgrade my front brakes to 26mm Z brakes. Will the spare tire of 240 clears the z brakes? Should I get the z spare tire instead from Nissan?thanks.--Leon

OK the Se alloys clear. So does the SE spare and the Z wheels and the Z spares.

My bet is that the spares are the same between SE and base, so therefore....

well, one's 4 lug and one is 5 so it wouldn't be a suprise if the rest of the wheel is different too. the JDM s14 had the z brakes up front (that's why everything clears) but i think that was only on the higher trimlines, not the 4 luggers.

i have a four lug spare and 26mm brakes but i have 5 lug hubs now so i'm not sure how i could check. i'm working on caliper sweeps so i'll be able to help you out pretty soon.
