New Infinity M45 rims on my 2K >:-)

They are 18"x7.5" (not staggered) with Turanza ER33 W-rated 235/45R18. Tire/wheel combo weighs 50lbs. My previous set of 17" SE rims/tires weighed 49 lbs. So not a big diff there...

Oh, and I love 'em :-)

And another shot. The rims nicely get rid of the tucked-in feeling that rear wells had with original 17s without spacers:

Thanks :-) They certainly look different than other rims... I like being unique ;-)

They are brand new with new rubber, Turanza E33 235-45R18W, got them quite cheap...

Price wise, it ended up almost being a straight exchange for my 17" rims and tires and I like these much better... Another better look at the car:

Looks nice. Like a factory option. It's not as dramatic as the G/Z wheels. But nice subtle upgrade. Looks great with the white also.

Thanks Jeff :-)

I was looking to buy yours or Ammi's G35 rims when you were selling them, but I liked these better and the price I got them for was excellent too...

Looking good, I like the color and the fact that they are 18's.

I was hoping for the 19" from the M45, I think those would look sick.

Man I got all excited when I saw m45 wheels cause I was thinking of 05-06 M 19inch gunmetal split 5 spoke. Dying to see a pair on a i30 or 135. Sucks I got outbidded on ebay for 1150.00 because i was a at work and couldn't raise my bid.

Better luck next time :-) I got mine on eBay too. I did not want to go as large as 19", didn't want to sacrifice the performance too much. But I think they would look awesome too. Can't wait to see it on some Maxes here!
