yea man... they don't make movies like that anymore, what a shame.



Correct me if I'm wrong but IPL wheels are built by the same company and procedure as the stock 19's. Same width, weight and all, except for style and color, so whats so special about them? Hence no one is going to pay 2x the price of what stock 19s are going for now.

True story...Save the money on new wheels and just have the stock sport wheels powder coated gun metal, like I did.

"lol.. who wants IPL rims if u can get 10x nicer and better rims for less that price"
Not based on some of the wheels I've seen posted across the web (and here at times).
And 10 times?

The IPL wheels are really nice, good luck with your search!

Exactly so. All our OEM wheels, including the IPL's, are built for Infiniti by Enkei. The IPL wheels just cost like crazy for no apparent reason other than being less common amongst our cars. Still insanely overpriced. Last time I checked, I could get me some custom-fit, forged amazing-looking rims with carbon fiber in them for the same price as OEM IPL rims.

Although I do agree that the IPL rims look really nice. Just too expensive.

The wheels on the anniversary editions are made by Rays.

IPL wheels are indeed nice, but not $4k nice.

Edit: ^Tired to buy those, it won't even let you put them in the cart. Pretty bogus....................



Dang I might just buy a set for that price. Can always use spares/winter tires.
