I just got these on Friday. They're not coupe wheels, but they are still OE Infiniti (Enkei) 19" wheels so I thought I'd post them here. I like these better than any of the 19" OE coupe wheels. I know it would look better dropped. I'll get that done soon.

M45 19s are nice. I was thinking of getting them, but the offset is too conservative for the G, and I didn't want to deal with spacers.

The offset on these wheels is definitely not "aggressive" and I didn't want to deal with spacers either. After owning this G for 3 years I was ready for an exterior mod and I always liked the way these 19's look. I admit they're still rather conservative and retain that stock (OE) look, but that's what I was going for.
I think Infiniti should have offered 19's on the G sedan as an option to begin with.

Nice Doc. Those M wheels look nice and classy.


Here's my addition to this thread. Coupe wheels powdercoated.

Coupe wheels for the win

Here is a picture of my setup. I regret not getting 4 rears. I opted for a staggered setup. I would have sold my set before buying tires but I invested a lot of money on tires alone. One of my front wheels was replaced by Infiniti due to the finish coming off. So I have one wheel that says Enkei. I would trade my wheels for 4 GTR front wheels.

Looks great! The powdercoat gives it a more aggressive look.

Hey guys, I just installed my new 19" IPL wheels (staggered) on my 2013 G37x Sedan (AWD). I am running all season Nitto Motivo Tires 225/45/19 Fronts and 245/40/19 Rears. The set up looks really good BUT I a have an issue. When I drive at high speeds especially driving at 40-45mph and at 75mph I hear like a winding hollow type sound. It has to be coming from the new wheel setup cuz I never heard that sound on my stocks. At first I thought the dealership didn't balance the wheels correctly so I got them rebalanced and I still hear the sound at those speeds. It's hard to explain the noise I'm hearing but I hear something coming from the wheels that is not normal when driving at highway speeds. What could this possible be? I was told that this set up can be done on my car with no issues. Can anyone please help me!

probably just the tires. some tires are nosier than others, and the Motivos probably makes that noise and not your old tires. But generally, bigger wheels with lower profile tires will have noiser than your stock 17s anyways.

Is it possible that it's the new tires breaking in? A different tread setup (especially a more aggressive tread) will make more noise and often times it takes a while for the tires to be settled in. Under-inflated tires can get pretty noisy too, I'd shoot for 35psi on all four. I'm sure you've covered all those bases but just in case. Your new tire diameters should be fine regarding your AWD, you're less than 1% so that's really close.

Yea maybe but I've never heard of tires that need to break in. And it's definitely not the actual vehicle since I've had it for 9 months and never had any issues regarding noise when at highway speeds. So it has to be a defective tire because the member I bought the wheels said that never never experienced any noise when driving.

P.S I've driving approx 200 miles with this wheel setup
