Jag xk was the first thought that came to my mind as well. Didn't like those wheels either.

Feminine? What's wrong with feminine? As long as they are sleek and sexy as the OEM '07/'08 Sport wheels are.

I'm going to have some 08 Sport wheels/tires for sale very very soon, like a week or so, and they only have 1,000 miles on them.... fyi.

And for the record, I do like the 08s better.

My God! The G37 has headlight washers and sensors in the bumper for distance!

God our cars have become so primative.

I don't mind the new rims. I wouldn't want to buy them or anything but I like them about the same as the rims on the 07-08.

I posted pictures of the Euro-spec 2009 G37 sedan to illustrate the appearance of the wheels.

I wouldn't argue with rear parking sensors, my F250 pickup has those and I've learned to like them, but you can keep the headlight washers.

The new rims wouldn't be bad if it didn't have the webbing in between the spokes.

That's what I thought too. The pics in the first post look a lot more "upright" than the ones in the second post (2009 Euro G37) and on the current 07/08's.

The blurry pics are from the back of the '09 FX brochure in case anyone is wondering. The service guys and I noticed this when we received them. Nothing new as the design was reveiled at Infinitipress.eu months ago, but it at least confirms that they will be present on the US market cars. We tried real hard to squint to see if we could spot the new 7A/T under there.
