Who's got chrome wheels

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.

I hit paydirt on Infiniti chrome rims. I bought rims from craigslist that were identical to my stock rims from my 08 EX, except that they are chrome. They look fantastic! They are 17's and have the same michelins as my originals. They had only 250 miles on it and they looked brand new. The guy I bought them from took them off his 2011 Ex right after buying it and put 20's on it. The deal got better when I found out he was asst manager of a tire shop and he put my tire sensors on the new ones (took his old ones off for his new rims) -put all wheels and tires back together again and balanced them. He then packed up my EX with my old stock in the back of the EX and off I went.
The best part of the deal was the price-$750 for everything! When the deal was done, I paid him an extra $50 for his trouble (labor). A great deal and a great guy. I will post pics soon.
I got long winded and almost forgot MY question. I've looked all over and can't find chrome 17's as part of a package or as an option. Anyone else have chromes? What year is your EX and how were they obtained-what package or option? Just curious. Love the look.

The 2011 EX35 has standard 18" wheels. :frown:

Actually, he said they came from a 2010 1/2. Don't think I ever heard of that term. Sounds like something a car salesman would say. I have seen other chrome wheels just like these on other EX's, but not sure they were 17's. You can definately tell the tires and wheels are brand new.

I sent my wife's 17" G35 wheels to a company and got chromed ones in return.

$700.00.
