I'm thinking of getting these wheels for my G37.  I would relegate the stock wheels to winter duty and these will be for spring/summer/and fall.

I like the darker ones more

I think the dark ones will look immature on a family sedan like the G37.

Other than the "Drag" center cap, I approve. Can you replace that with something with an Infiniti logo por example?

I don't know.  I could probably paint them though.

Make sure you get the right offset. I see a lot of Infinitis on FWD offset aftermarket wheels looking "sunken battleshipped"

I am not crazy about them TBH. For some reason they look a little cheap. If these are summer tires I would go with something 19" and slightly concave or dished.

Raza

I honestly can't think of any set of wheels I've ever seen on a G37 sedan that have looked good.  Something about that design.

Yeah, these wheels look cheap.  I'd pass.

What looks cheap about them?

Everything.

99.9% of the time, aftermarket wheels look shitty, cheap, cheesy, trashy etc.

x2 if you are over 30

^10 if you have kids and it's a sedan like the G37.

This company seems like a less-known Rota. They even make a Spoon SW388 knockoffs (DR23).

Well, I don't agree.

The multiple bolt pattern wheels are stupid and cheap looking.  Find some that properly fit this car.

I'm not looking to spend $2000 on wheels.

Lol, didn't even notice that when I first glanced.  Multi-bolt pattern wheels?  Yikes...helllllll no would I put those on.  Once you get the lugs on, that'd look absolutely terrible.

Yeah, never, ever go with multi-bolt wheels.

SVT, stop treating your G37 like a 20 year old Civic. Why would you ruin the look of the car with those crappy wheels? If anything, get those wheels for your snow tires to keep the OEM ones looking nice.

I found two others that I like.  They're both made by Enkei.

I like the bottom one. Enkei wheels are pretty heavy, though. I found that only the Racing ones were good.

Although I'm not sure if you have a weight limit and what that is if you have one.

I think my OEM 19 inchers look nice.

The stock wheels are Enkei and weigh 23.5 lbs each.

I like the 19s but the only ones I can find are $600 or more apiece.

Really? Damn, I should get some locks for mine.
