New to the forum, got some questions!

[Geno Cochino]

Hey everyone! Just bought my first FX45 AWD, its a 2003 with about 156k on it... Dark Grey with black interior. Very clean. My love for Nissan's started with the 71 Datsun 510 in high school and since then I've owned a couple of QX4's and a Porsche Cayenne Turbo prior to my current FX...
I must say that Im pleasantly surprised after owning the powerful Cayenne with just how much juice the FX45 has! It gets up and goes for sure and has little to no problem with power.
Im really excited about not freaking out as badly when my kid gets into it and kicks the seats or slams a door, the porsche and the cost of maintenance had dad on edge, to say the least.
Anyway, I want to do a couple of small modifications to my FX45, Im hoping you guys can help steer me in the right direction... I need new tires as one of mine has bubbles on the inside,,, not sure what to get with these 20 inch rims (I need all weather as its snowing right now up here in Northern California) any suggestions???? Les Schwabb was trying to sell me on their best all weather tire but Im thinking I can do far better, although the closest city is Redding and there isn't many options.
Also im on the hunt for a black matte grill and the smokey looking headlight glass, as well as the tinted looking tail lights,,, what are my options and where do I find all of these?????
Thanks in advance you guys!
I will post pix of my progress...

Welcome to Geno.

I have not been buying 20" tires. Other will charm in on what they're running with nowadays. Buy online for more option, have it shipped, & install them locally is the best deal in my opinion.

There is no aftermarket black grille, DIY ( just need to scuffed up the chrome with brown Scotch pad) it using Kylon Fusion rattle can spray paint or have it done at a shop. While at the shop they can tint the tails too.

There is no aftermarket smoked/dark headlight glass, you will need to open it up and paint them the color you wanted.

Welcome to !

For tires, Yokohama Parada spec-x all season is a popular choice among many members. I personally prefer it and has been using it since ownership of my FX. Like what Andy indicated the blacked out grille, tinted tails and headlights are only available through DIY mods or aftermarket. Ebay currently has multiple listing of black grilles for the 2003. Unless if your vehicle comes in with the non sport headlights and red tails, you can purchase lightly smoked sports headlights and clear tails (not sure if the early 45s already come with them standard). From time to time, members here are parting out their modded items.
