Anyone have any pics to share ?

 

Do a search. There is alot.

 

I have done a search and came up with zilch, that is the reason for the ask.

 

You are doing it wrong then. Go look at the galleries.

 

It won't look any different with a regular G37s with aftermarket wheels.

 

The reason for the ask is that I keep hearing about limited availability of aftermarket wheels due to the spacer/offset issues related to the AWD.

Kidcane - searched the galleries with no success so if you know another way please let me know. thanks

 

it's easier finding wheels to fit the G37x coupe b/c of the smaller 13" rotors as opposed to the sport's 14" brakes



we threw XIX wheels on the showroom model and they've been selling (various designs)

 

^^ no thanks. looks like an old school caddy should have those on it.


To the OP, the wheels are limited for the X coupe to: No staggered setup and all 4 tires the same size. I may be forgetting something though. My offsets for the wheels I ordered are +38 as well..

 

i didn't say i liked them either but they worked. the sport wheels had a clearance issue so these awd coupes you'll find a very wide variety of wheels to fit and clear.

 

As an X owner who has spent a lot of time looking for alternate wheels, I can tell you that there are some other issues complicating that process for any interested X owner.

1. Most of the websites offering wheels don't list the X model among the choices to confirm fitment.

2. The customer service reps at most sites and local wheel outlets don't understand the differences either.

As an example, I spent forty-five minutes on the phone yesterday trying to get an Internet dealer for one wheel manufacturer to grasp the difference between the X and the S, and despite already having personally cleared the issue with the national rep for the manufacturer, the dealer refused to sell the wheels to me unless I assumed the risk that they wouldn't fit--i.e., no refund. (Complete BS.) I called the manufacturer rep back and he said he was getting IM's from the site as we spoke, and even he couldn't get this through to them. They're all hung up on the brake clearance issue with the S.

3. For a novice it is VERY difficult and time consuming to wade through all the spec's that have to be satisfied to confirm fitment. The problem is compounded by the fact that the websites often don't provide complete or accurate information.

It would be much better to have a wide choice of local outlets to deal with directly, but that's not the case where I live.

4. One other significant factor is that there is a split of opinion out there about whether 19" should be used on the X. One poster here says he has been strongly discouraged by his dealer from deviating from the OEM size (18 x 8). Personally, I avoided this issue largely because I'm too cheap to want to buy new tires right out of the gate.

5. Obviously there are fewer choices available if you limit yourself to only the OEM size.

In short, if you're an X owner looking for aftermarket wheels, do your homework and buyer beware...there's a shortage of info out there and a lot of what is out there is unreliable.

The good news is that I think I finally found my wheels after many, many hours of wading through the BS and nearly going blind sifting through style after style after style online. Now every time I see a car of any make, I find myself calling out the name and model of the wheels of many of them! (By the way, I saw a Lexus IS this morning wearing G37S shoes.)

 

I started sifting aimlessly through wheels and companies and also found most reps are clueless about the X coupe.

PM or AIM or call Andy at HPAUTO. He took care of me with fitment and everything I was unsure about, and at the best price I found on the same wheel/tire combo for ALOT cheaper than anyone else I checked with

 

Appreciate the feedback. I stopped my dealer (Infiniti of Lisle) over the weekend and quickly noticed that they've fitted an X coupe with some 20s. I'm definently going to pick the GM's brain to ensure I get the offsets and sizes because the wheels fit the cat great.

 

^^ did you ever go back and get the correct offsets?

 

The GM has been out on vacation. Picked up a PG G37x last weekend so I'll be pressing him on the offsets when he returns. The wheels are Kyowa Racing with 245/35/20 tires.

 

ok thanks. wheels I have coming in are 20x9 255/35/20 all around with 38 offsets. They were measured for me yesterday and I was told they sit perfect.
