20" Custom Wheels (with pictures)

Discussion of Infiniti's amazing (and underrated) sport-luxury crossovers, the EX35 and EX37. For 2014, the EX series will be renamed QX50, in line with Ininfiit's new naming conventions.

Very cool... did you find a difference in the ride quality after the 20's were installed?

Ride quality hasn't changed much.It's still very comfy.However, handling seems to be improved.

Excellent! First (real) pics I've seen of 20's on an EX, & just as I thought...the EX seems to really need 20's to fill in the wheel wells & look more balanced. Kind of like the FX. Of course, you can now get an FX50 with 21's! Now if I could only decide WHICH 20's to get!!! Thanks so much for posting pics!

Again.. that's a very cool look... fills out the wheel wells much better. Did you have any problems with the tire pressure monitoring system when you changed wheels or did you swap them from the original tires?

Welcome to the forum, kamiguy!! Looks like us Canadians are coming out in full force!

Awesome wheels (and pics), st_donjuan! Can you give me a qualitative feel for how much it improves handling with the larger wheels and lower profile tires?

Thanks!David

Can someone say "PIMP MY RIDE" Sorry, they look awful. You just messed up your EX. I think if you got rims that had more rim look, then it will look better, but these rims will look better on a car, not a crossover.

Not a fan of the wheel design, but the 20's are a perfect size on the EX!

Nicely done, Sir!
