Bought these Enkei G5's for the EX today

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.

Had second thoughts. I'll show the replacements when they're mounted.

18"x8" with a 40 offset.

yea...the tirerack img just doesnt do it justice.

I saw those on tirerack too but it looks so anemic and small i havent even gone back.

i really need to find summer shoes for the EX, i'd rather do a roadtrip in the EX than SLK lol

Not really.

I'm really a chrome kind of guy, so I went that way with some TSW's. Didn'twant to spend the money, but it got the best of me.

They'll be here Monday.

19+" or you will regret the day you install it. Unless you had stock 17"s

Guess it depends what you want... I went for some bling and had 20's on last summer and while they looked great... there was a noticeable difference in acceleration off the line. Went for some nice lightweight 18's and have a good look(I think) and good acceleration too!

Cannot wait to see the pics... I am interested in getting some new rims for the summer... although its my daily commuter so I am concerned with getting bigger wheels I will get worse fuel economy. I get 22mpg with summer fuel,but with a 90 mile round trip I will probably go to 18's tops.
