Attn Sport Wheel Owners

Do any of you have these little blue dots on each wheel? I thought they were just some sticker from the factory but on closer inspection it looks to be blue paint, each marked with just a little dot, one on each wheel. Next question is, how do you get that dumb blue dot off?

The blue dot is paint and should be on all wheels, it's for balancing purposes. They can still balance just fine without it. A fingernail or anything that you can use to scrape it off with will work, Just don't scrape so hard you scratch the wheel finish.

You didn't know that by removing the dots the wheels become more aerodynamic making your car faster, of course my added horsepower could be from the Flux Capacitor i threw on the back.

If you remove the blue dots, you will see the Matrix for what it really is.

I see red dot's on the tires, but dots on the wheels, I guess Infiniti is a multicolor company.
BTW, the Flux Capacitor I had to import from out of the country, hush, hush, they dont exist.
