20" fx wheels on current gen M????

i've been trying to find a picture of somesort show if the 20" fx wheels fit the current gen M. i've tried searching everywhere. but nothing found.
i think the 20" fx wheels would look SICK on the new M. doesn't seem like anyone has tried it. or is it not possible because of offset issues?

yes it can be possible. there's a good customer that has 20" FX rims on his I35s with a sick drop and no rubbing issues

the FX wheel is 20x8 w/ a 40mm offset. i'll post up the pic of the I35 on FX 20's which did look good -- very heavy wheel but hey it's strong

G on FX 20's

Here is a pic of a V36 G with FX35 sport 20's on it...Rides quite nice with no rubbing at all.

I just thought I would mention that the FX 20" wheels weigh 41 lbs each .
That is why I am not running them on my FX and have a set of aftermarket 20s ordered that only weigh 24 lbs each.

^GREAT PLAN Wayne.

I wouldn't want those heavy suckers on my car either.

You would have to really feel that kind of extra unsprung weight. The monster tires are enough.

That's a v35!

They are cool wheels but 40lbs that's crazy.

Yes, they are are a great looking wheel. Once I found out the weight I opted not to get them. With that much weight it would affect your performance a lot.

they're strong b/c they are that heavy... but that much weight will really strain the drivetrain and axles...
