Feeling the FX50 wheels, not digging the prices?

Something happened in the galaxy at some point between the 20th and 21st century - large wheels became the in thing even for manufacturers.

Nissan typically doesn't disappoint in wheel design and you see other makes/models rocking our wheels than the other way round. Anyway, the FX50S came with some massive beautiful 21" wheels and you guessed it... we were there to borrow the look.

I stumbled upon these on ebay:

Pros:
- price
- their specs are closer to the FX45 20" BBWs (big beautiful wheels - I should trademark that). 20 inch tires will hurt you less in the pocket and give you more meat for the road too.
Cons
- being cast, they are some heavy SOBs

that is a cheap price they usually run about 400 per rim

They look nice and stock if you like that look. Personally for a stock wheel, I prefer the 19" Q50 sport wheels to these you shown.



On my car I went with Niche 20's and the rear tire is a 35 series sidewall. I always worry about running over stuff. Running these infiniti 21" wheels you would probably need a 30 series tire which doesn't offer much protection from pot holes and other road hazards

These guys are selling knockoffs, or should I say imitations of the 21" wheels. The owners in the first 2 links were pretty much riding on rubber bands. It's pretty cool that these are 20s, so the tires can have a little more cushioning. Illinois and Missouri roads can be brutal.

I usually exclusively go for OEM wheels for my upgrades and for my cars, I like thicker spokes.
But for some reason, these being sold by the ebay seller don't have that appeal to me. Idk if it's the weight, because the size isn't bad.
Edit: The seller told me that these weigh approx 37 lbs each.
