Sport Wheels

My original plan a number of months ago was to buy Lexion 503s for my G. I think my plans of have changed. I finally got around to putting a couple coats of sealant on my wheels today. After I was finished applying sealant to my wheels I really noticed how much I love these OEM Sport wheels. Liking them as much as I do now, I really don't think I'll be able to justify spending a few thousand bucks on aftermarket wheels and tires.

Anyways, I just thought I would share that I am sure I can't be the only one that really likes these Sport wheels.


Now if the weather could only cooperate in the next week or two so that I can finally give my G a proper detailing session I would be a happy camper.

They are a great looking wheel Shane, I can't blame you.
I'm with you on the nice weather, I am dying to treat mine ( I was hoping on getting Picus but he is too booked up). At least you have a garage, you can get a bit done on your car.
My daughter sent us an email from her home in Cambridge, England and it was 25 C there today. Man that would be nice, it warmed up to 8 C here today.

I purchased a loot of new supplies awhile ago now from eshine and I have been chomping at the bit to give the G a proper detailing. Hopefully I will be able to soon.

Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on the weather in Europe and they are getting some fantastic weather lately. Paris was 27C today, Albufeira, Portugal where I was last year was 25C, and Seville, Spain was 25C as well. Man, I can't wait for this type of weather!!

Agree totally re the stock S wheels. I would love to reduce the gap but am not sure I want to go down as far as what I have seen on here.

I was also thinking of getting 19's or 20's but the sport wheels have really grown on me as well... I just wish there were some more options for tires when the OEM's wear out, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

Shane, looking forward to seeing that GE all spiffed up!

If you like the look, another option for stock wheels is to use spacers to bring the wheel / tires out to fender line.

The oem sport wheels are really hot, the best looking OE wheel that Infiniti has made to date, IMO. I saw definitely keep em, and only swap em out when their originality fades in your mind.

Yep agree, whenever I consider aftermarket wheels I can't justify adding a bunch of cost just to replace wheels I already like. Hey, I should spend the money on other stuff!
