IMO.... OEM rims blow big time (6 spoked, thick, and curved??? wtf were they thinking?) ... they only thing keeping me paitient to save up for real rims is that they are 18's and not smaller.

that said, OEM rims would look soooooooooooo much better if u black out the outer sides of the spokes (making them thinner). i wanna try it but it might look weird (my car being blue and the only color i have is black).. i dunno.

Not feeling it with those rims. They just don't look right to me. Maybe because they aren't factory chromed, lost details.

...but compared to the OEM 17''s that come on the SL, these look way better. althought the SE 18''s aren't too bad IMO, when compared to previous gens... I love my 18's though, HELO Diamonds and yes they are chrome but they turn more heads than anything else http://www.cardomain.com/ride/675591 J.I.C

The wheels and the car still look ugly. Too bad.

Those FX rims would only look right on a 6th gen...if you think they look right at all.

Definitely not on a 5th or 4th gen.

They do come in a flat silver finish, which is more standard on the actual FX. These rims seem to be the ebay chromed ones with core exchange, it's got the flat center cap vs. the Infinity ones that come standard.

nope most of the FX 20's are the silver color. They used to come in a platinum color and they still come in the chrome from the factory. They do have the standard 18's in silver and thats it. I know this because I've worked at an Infiniti dealership for a year and a half. Oh and I think those chrome FX wheels on the max look sick. Makes the car look 10x better. I love infiniti wheels.

anj109, your car looks great with those rims.

those FX rims dont sit right with me.

and Hzmajesty, if you get some electictape out and stand back and check it out, youd get a good idea of what it would look like.
