That is why I upgraded. The 2009 had better looking 17" wheels than the ones on the 2010 model. I would like the sportier front bumper. Anyways the car looks so much better with the coupe 19" wheels.

Does anyone know what are the differences in the headlights between sport and nonsport? I have the sport model and I can't distinguish between them.

Those are the sport wheels from 2007-08. I have those on my '08 G35xS.

I have no problem with the looks of the stock 17" wheels either. When I bought the car, after reading the bad reviews on the 17" wheels on this forum, I figured I'd have to swap the wheels out.
When I checked them out on the lot, I was surprised. They looked fine to me.
Now that I have had the car for almost 5 months, the wheels even look better to me.

Thanks! Paid $1300 for a used set. I had TPMS sensors installed at the dealership and they damaged my 19" coupe wheels and I made it known to them that I was very upset. The dealer decided to replace all 4 wheels and tires as they found out their wheel balance machine was damaging the wheels due to a worn out protector. I ended up getting a brand new set due to faulty equipment. Do note these wheels and tires sell for $6000 at a dealership. It was their loss and my gain. I would not pay that much for them. I would get them through a private party. Expect to pay at least $1300 or more for a decent set.

Now they're the wheel and tire package in 2010. It was a $500 option.
