Hello Nissan. Did you choose the 16" wheel in combination with at 205/55R16 tire just for the 'sex appeal?' If so, it was a significant lapse of judgement. Please consider a 15" wheel with a 70 series tire as an alternative that protects the tire sidewalls and wheel rims on the Leaf from expensive damage from pot hole damaged streets. Not all travel surfaces are as well maintained as your test tracks at Oppama, Hokkaido, Tochigi and Motegi. If you persist in delivering a vehicle without a jack and spare tire, at least equip it with a wheel/tire combination with a reasonable chance of surviving the encounter with an unanticipated pothole.
