*1: When tire replacement is required, replacing tires as a set of four with new tires is recommended.
However, if a tire is punctured or damaged, it may
be possible to replace only the damaged tire.
Determining whether one tire or a complete set of
tires should be replaced is based on a number of
factors including tire wear and condition. Contact
your GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. They can
recommend if an individual tire or a complete set
should be replaced.
