Probably the last set in the country. Trust me, I called everywhere..

I called four different dealers(two direct) and two aftermarket infinit sites who are tied into the inventory and can see who has what or not. I got the last set, unless there is one not in the system which seems unlikely.
I must have missed your post about scoring a set, unless this was it ^^^
Nice find, be sure to post some shots when you get them on

It wasn't the deal everyone else got, but still better than most aftermarket set ups and it was what I wanted, so still worth it!!

Love how it looks. There is nice contrast with my body color vs. the sublte hints of gunmetal in the wheels. Looks so nice.

Android pics don't do it justice.

For those who want to know who orderinfinitiparts.com is... It is Infiniti of Charlotte. When my order from them came I checked the ship from address and matched it up with the dealership address. They are the same.

Also, I must be the only one that doesn't think the math of the difference between the front and rears isn't a big deal. When u add the extra quarter inch to each side of the wheel and subtract it from the 13mm offset difference, it's impossible to tell from a side view picture unless the owner says what they are.

Actually it's a pretty big difference, you've got the 6mm for the 1/2" wider rim and another 13mm further out w/ offset for a net 19mm, about 4/5ths of an inch, pretty significant IMO.
At any rate, both setups look nice and without a drop the 8.5 +43 is the
safe choice. With a drop the 9 +30 has a nice flush fit.

This does look great. Not as aggressive as the sport coupe 19s, but in a good way, if that makes sense. Certainly a more dignified look

I agree they both look great - without a drop IMHO!

Looks great guys! glad you were able to take advantage of the deal while it lasted. I actually think that these look a bit more aggressive than the standard coupe 19's.
