exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This does
not indicate that there is a malfunction. If large
drops of water collect inside the lens, contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer.

GUID-FA6175CA-B213-4ECE-863E-635EEF1FE21FIf you have a flat tire, see the following
section. (
ªFlat tireº page 6-3)
CAUTION
A GT-R certified NISSAN dealer should
perform a tire change. It will be neces-
sary to reset the tire pressure sensors.
To change the tires, it is recommended
you contact a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
Be sure to use the tires and wheels together as
a set that are designated for use with this
vehicle.
When tire replacement is required, replacing the
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. It is recommended you contact
your GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. They can
recommend if an individual tire or a complete set
should be replaced.
NOTICE
Make sure the tire valve stem cap is
installed and that the valve stem is
tight. When installing the cap, make
sure to tighten the cap by hand. If a tool
is used to tighten the cap, the cap may
be damaged.
TIRE PRESSUREGUID-524F51D3-3740-4280-B73B-13DACCD59EB9
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
GUID-49C37FD6-6A53-4877-8974-3E290A8057A5This vehicle is equipped with the Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) . It monitors tire
pressure of all tires. When the low tire pressure
warning light is lit, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. The system also
displays pressure of all tires on the touch screen
display by sending a signal from a sensor that is
installed in each wheel.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) .
Also, this system may not detect a sudden drop
in tire pressure. (

ing lightº page 2-27) (

Monitoring System (TPMS)º page 5-4)

Tire inflation pressureGUID-EBF83A20-58CD-45AB-9465-0CC2CBF3A2FD
Check the tire pressure often and always
prior to long distance trips. The recom-
mended tire pressure specifications are
shown on the F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. la-
bel or the Tire and Loading Information
label (if so equipped) under the ªCold
Tire Pressureº heading. The Tire and
Loading Information label is affixed to the
driver side door end. Tire pressures
should be checked regularly because:
.Most tires naturally lose air over time.
.Tires can lose air suddenly when
driven over potholes or other objects
or if the vehicle strikes a curb while
parking.
NOTE:
. You can check the pressure of all four
tires on the touch screen display. See
the separate Multi Function Display
Owner's Manual.
. The tires of this vehicle are filled with
nitrogen gas. When the tire pressure is
low, fill the tires with nitrogen. It is
recommended you contact a GT-R cer-
WHEELS AND TIRES


> (GLW    0RGHO 0< 1,66$1 *755 20(58 @
tified NISSAN dealer for information on
filling the tires with nitrogen.
. If nitrogen is not available, compressed
air may be safely used under normal
driving conditions. However, NISSAN
recommends refilling with nitrogen for
maximum tire performance.
The tire pressures should be checked
when the tires are cold. The tires are
considered COLD after the vehicle has
been parked for 3 or more hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at
moderate speeds.
Incorrect tire pressure, including
under inflation, may adversely affect
tire life and vehicle handling.
WARNING
.Improperly inflated tires can
fail suddenly and cause an
accident.
.The Gross Vehicle Weight rat-
ing (GVWR) is located on the F.
M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. certifica-
tion label. The vehicle weight capacity is indicated on the
Tire and Loading Information
label (if so equipped) . Do not
load your vehicle beyond this
capacity. Overloading your ve-
hicle may result in reduced tire
life, unsafe operating condi-
tions due to premature tire
failure, or unfavorable hand-
ling characteristics and could
also lead to a serious accident.
Loading beyond the specified
capacity may also result in
failure of other vehicle compo-
nents.
.Before taking a long trip, or
whenever you heavily load
your vehicle, use a tire pres-
sure gauge to ensure that the
tire pressures are at the spe-
cified level.
.For additional information re-
garding tires, refer to ªImpor-
tant Tire Safety Informationº
(US) or ªTire Safety Informa-
tionº (Canada) in the Warranty
Information Booklet.
NOTE:
.
Use only genuine GT-R tires and road
wheels.
The GT-R uses specially designed run-
flat tires and matching road wheels.
Use of these specially developed tires
and wheels provides the greatest po-
tential for maximum performance.
ÐGenuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help achieve maximum cornering
and braking performance.
Ð Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help achieve maximum tire durabil-
ity during acceleration.
Ð Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help achieve maximum handling
capability during performance driv-
ing.
Ð Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help provide road holding in the
event of decreasing tire pressure
and punctures.
Ð Genuine GT-R tires and road wheels
help prevent the decrease of

straight-running stability caused by
uneven tire wear due to high rigidity
wheels and wide tires.
. The GT-R uses specially designed run-
flat tires which feature an extremely
rigid side wall. Special techniques and
equipment are therefore required when
replacing these tires. NISSAN recom-
mends that tire replacement be per-
formed at a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. Specific tire changing equipment must
be used to remove the GT-R tires from
the wheel and to install the GT-R tires
onto the wheel. It is only possible to
reuse the tires when they have no
cracks and/or deformations on the
bead portion of the tire. If the incorrect
equipment is used to remove the GT-R
tires from the wheel and to install the
GT-R tires onto the wheel, cracks and
deformation may occur on the bead
portion of the tires meaning that the
tires cannot be reused. It is recom-
mended you contact a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer if the tires need to be
removed from the wheels.
