infinti what's wrong with you
 
one of my rim is scratched, i have 05 19" so i called few places they all told me that rim is anodize so they cant just paint it there only way for me is to buy a rim to replace it.
so i called infiniti dealer here in ontario canada, the guy told me one front rim cost 1460+15% tax. WTF just one rims is already 1680CDN so if you buy a set of 05 rim will cost you 6716CDN and that's just rim with no tires.
i thought BMW parts are expensive but i guess not. my friend just pick up a set of 21" BMW OEM rim with P-nero tires from BMW dealer for 5600CDN.
BMW 21" with pirelli p-zero nero 245/35/21 275/30/21 actually cost almost the same as our 19" without tires....

have them ever think of the market ? a g35 fully loaded only cost 50k+ how the hell on earth can us pay 6k for those rims ?

as for BMW 21" with tires the price isnt bad consider those are for 745 the car cost over 100k+ cdn shouldnt be a problem for them to pay 6k for a set of rims/tires

GRider35c May 6, 2005 11:37 PM

maybe since our rims are forged??

Buy new wheels..

STill_matic May 7, 2005 12:08 AM

So like $1460 CDN is like $390 US right? Go for it!

visualfusion May 7, 2005 12:14 AM

I don't get how one wheel can be 6000CND (which is like... 5000USD?) when the whole damn package is only $1600USD?! He's totally bull****ing you.... contact the main infiniti to sort this out

TimW May 7, 2005 12:15 AM

he didnt say that, he said 'set'

realgone May 7, 2005 12:39 AM

Sounds like a great opportunity to buy some custom wheels.

Custom will look better than stock anyday.

Gman2004 May 7, 2005 12:47 AM

No what I said was a set of all ( 2 frt & 2 back) 4 in all with the factory tires with 47 miles on them. W/ lug nuts. You want pictures?
For what its worth I replaced all the stock wheels and tires for under $3000.00 with Volk gt-c and toyos. 8.5 frt w/ 245/35 9.5 back 275/35
Pm if you want more info. Oh they paid the shipping also.

try ebay...you might be able to find someone that has one rim. Or if you can find someone who has already wrecked an 05 and is selling the rims. If the car is driveable and the scratch isn't too bad, just keep on truckin and when the right deal comes around, pick it up and be done with it.

That's what I would do

My Infiniti dealership said they would repair all the scratches on my rim for $250.
