Manufacturer of our oem 19's???

Anyone know the manufacturer of our oem 19's? I thought it was Enkei for some reason. I guess I thought that 'cause the FX50's oem rims are made by Enkei.

You'd think at ~$900 to replace, Enkei would have made them lighter wheels. I'd think Nissan would use BBS, Rays, or Volk for OEM rims. Could have been nice. By the way, how'd you find out that Enkei made our wheels. I've been looking for evidence about that they really made them for us.

I think they are stamped Enkei on the inside of the rim near the spokes.

Also, my 06 G35C 19" oem wheels were made by Rays (stamped as such). They were forged and very lightweight. The wheels is one area where infiniti cut costs on the G37 in order to keep the price near the same while adding features.

Thats cost saving? $850 a wheel? Volks, and Works would have been cheaper and much lighter...
