I dont disagree with you on that... I swapped these out for the 06-07 sport oem wheels and I really like how they look on the car compared to these myself...
I just about purchased the 08 sport wheels, but after looking at them close up, and talking to a few people; the rims come accross as "desprete" to make them look new - by twisting the spokes... I dont like them as much as the 06-07 sport wheels... in pictures they look great to me, when I saw them on the car at hyatt infiniti I thought the same as many people commented to me...
Before you buy them, take a close look at them... and with that said, if you end up buying new hyatt was double the costs as joe from everythinginfiniti.com (sponsor here) - the taxes and handling fees from DHL cost me $345, but the deal was still better than buying locally;
I did find some used rims in the classified adds here that were way cheaper for the same wheel - but after I ordered mine from him... still no regrets however... no issues getting the minor damage in shipping fixed;
I suggest you get the custom packing before you buy rims out of town; the boxes they came in from factory are horrible!! I ended up with a bent wheel, and two niks on the rim from the lug nuts they taped to the bottom of the box; Joe was very good about taking care of the replacement etc... but in the future I would insist on better packing compared to factory packing...
congrats on the purchase, and no issues with not liking my wheels - frankly I hate them - huge mistake on my part from wheel choice and design - I will not get into how that all happened way too long a storey!
take care, see you on the deerfoot!tk
