You weren't too sure back then with your Nissan dealer if they tolerate modding on your cube, in the end, they don't bother? The Apex look to be linear rate spring, should be alright with the height they give.

Yes D3stro they don't bother now after a couple of discussion with the service director im not supposed to get any problem with my warranty.
The only thing they want me to do is my oil change and the service on the motor to keep my extended warranty of 10yr/200000 km.
I will post picture asap im on my way to the garage now
Have a great day everyone.

You can always get wheels with a higher offset rather than a +45 offset otherwise they will look sunken into the fender. I assume the 522 are 15x8 +0.
It rub in the rear mostly? If yes when you're alone, image how bad with 4 peoples and luggages.
Bad news, Koni don't make the yellow for the cube/versa.
It's kinda of hard to stretch a 15'' tire to remain within spec for the cube to make some clearance so it won't rub.

If you want to get higher offset wheels and get spacer, why not find a nice 5 bolts wheels and get 4 to 5 lugs spacer adapter? I know theses adapters are a little more expensive than normal spacer but the choice in 5 bolts is just awesome too.

I say camber and smaller tires and a drop. getting new strut in the rear like koni yellow would not help you in this case. Yes it would make your car more stiff, yes it will handle better but the spring is the same. the spring will compress the same way due to the same spring rate. So you would get higher spring rate springs But changing the strut, you would still rub the same.
