wanting to buy new color 20"fx wheels

I am wanting to buy a set of four 20" fx wheels. The ones that i am wanting though are the newer looking rims that look just like the old ones but are more of a pewter color rather than the old silver ones. I will attach a picture so you can understand what i am asking for if my description is hard to understand.

Welcome, sixthGear, and yes the Fx wheels are sweet.

One word of caution, tho, guys...in case you don't know....the VDC and ABS systems on our rides depend on the original OEM overall diameter of the wheel and tire setup for proper systems' function.

You might want to get some professional advice, but from what I've heard, the max allowable variance is only about 3%.
To stay within that range would mean a very small aspect ratio tire to meet the required height restriction (with the 20's).

Food for thought.

and like I said, just in case you don't know.
C.

If it's the 8-spoke design you are thinking of, I would suggest taking a look at the 8-spoke 18" or 19" designs on the new Infiniti M... they very closely resemble the OEM FX wheels and may be a more suitable option for your G.

I believe your talking about the obsidian painted rims. I went there today to get a quote on them and they said you can have your stock rims painted to that color. the price here in washington is 2300.00, they take your rims, sand off the silver finish and powder coat the rims black, then they take them to a chromer and have the coated or finished with chrome. they said they paint job is really sensitive and recommend not to do it if you do not baby your car. they get scratched up easily and you have to clean them very delicately... They look hella sick though...
