Yeah those are the q50 rims black chrome 19s. Loved them. This care was so clean. I have been looking in my area for a replacement today. I searched for 3 months before i bought this car. Probably drive the q50 tomorrow to see what the differences are. My guess is that I will either get a g or q.

That is a testament of the build quality.
Glad your ok, cars are always replaceable people are not.
Good luck with your claim, hope it gets settled quickly & fairly.

Stay clear of the Q for the 2014 model year. It's plagued by many serious issues.

So glad you made it out of that wreck ok. Wow.

Glad you made it! Reminds me of the commercial/story where the guy saves the shift **** from the car he loved that was also totaled but the car saved the driver.

I see your second pic and think that the cabin did it's job 100%

Take care.

Glad you're okay! Where did you buy the Q50 rims? I'm about to purchase a new G and want to "swap" stock for Q50 rims.

TIA

Those rims are pretty slick.. I bet they are more expensive than many of the after market stuff out there though unfortunately.

How would one find out this particular style as there are a few types I've seen for the Q50?

I got the wheels from Tyson's corner Infiniti for 1400. Call Pete, he was awesome to deal with. I will be getting another set for sure.

wow. Same thing almost happened to me a couple months back. A big dump truck came on to my lane forcing me off the road and half way off the shoulder. Luckily I had a little room to maneuver unlike you. The whole time I was laying on my horn. The other driver finally realized it and moved back over. I'd say your very lucky. Hopefully you can get your insurance to cover the cost of those wheels.

Glad you're OK.
Did the moron in the 18 wheeler live by this code?

Ouch. Don't think that will rub out.

Goes to show, you need to be aware of everything around you when driving, not just in front. For many, driving is a secondary function to talking on their cell. Coming from motorcycles, the assumption is we're invisible.
