Welcome to NICO! :dblthumb:

Someone changed the OEM Infiniti 18" wheels for 16" wheels and tires? :eek: Good grief!

What tires are on these 16" wheels? If the load index is well below 94 (like around 89 or 91), you have a very unsafe situation ... a bad bump could blow out the tire easily by exceeding its load capacity. :ohno: If this happens at highway speeds, ... then ... we may never hear from you again!

What is the offset of the FX35 wheels? I forget the value ...

Anyway, if they are OEM Infiniti wheels size 18x7.5 or 18x8 with near the correct offset for the 2003 M45, they should fit perfectly fine. :yesnod The offset specs for our cars is in the manuals - link is in my sig!

Again, welcome to the club. I love my 2003 M45 for sure!
