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.

The sensors are the same for 17s or 18s so you can use them.

You didn't say aftermarket so what was the question :-)

There are some wheel designs that don't like sensors and you have to band or glue the factory sensors and use standard valve stems. The sensors don't care if the wheels are factory or aftermarket but do care if the wheel design (valve stem location) is compatible with common sensors. I would guess 80-90% of the wheels on the market now are ok with sensors.
