Anyone know the FX50 Wheel offsets???

I'm curious to know if anyone knows the FX50 20" wheel offsets as If I get a G37 coupe, I'm contemplating installing them with spacers if need be to have an OEM sporty 20" wheel look.

Heres the wheels in question

the 21" tires alone will be costly. but the offsets are probably 45-50mm

They are 21" Enkeis and the offset is 50mm
I did not want them for my FX because they are 21" and tire selection is minimal.
All of the 2nd Gen OEM FXs are 50 mm offset.
The 1st Gen OEM FXs are 40 mm offset

the wheels are light as hell for a 21" wheel. I'm suprised the 21" tire cost is not that expensive.

the wheels look great on the M

They do look good on the M.

I chose a lightweight Enkei 20" wheel for my FX.
The Enkei Racing GTC 01 in Hyper Black.

I think the FX50 wheels are siiiick! I'm currently in the hunt for a deal on a set to put on our 05 FX! Clean stock look but quite a big upgrade!
