Your thoughts on these 20s...

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 am going back to PacMall and China Towers Mall (across the street) to get more pricing.

Which MSR 20s are they? I will quote them for you.

Falken 452 245/40/20s seem to be the best bang for the dollar right now. that is what I have been getting quotes with.
MSR 093

Try to work out a cash deal with them in P-Mall and China Towers. Maybe it's easier for me as I am Chinese Or try to work out a deal for getting 2 sets from them.

I was thinking of gettnig the Hankook Ventus K104 as I am currently using them in the Mercedes and quite happy with them. How much are the Falken's? Probably we can get a deal for getting 2 sets as well

BTW thanks for getting the quote

Didnt have time to make it to Pac Mall.

Went to maxim wheel in China Tower.... the store was being tended two by the parents of the son who owns/runs the shop..LOL. They asked me to come back later.

Based on the email quote I got for them on the VIP status wheels...they are by far the best price. by about $250. Falken seem to really be the best value right now. I think the Hankook's will be more expensive.

Thanks bro. I'll give them and a few others a call for some quotes. I've called one shop and they quoted me $2500 for a set I remember one guy was selling the MSRs for $859+ tax on craigslist. Wonder if he has 42mm or just a specific offset.

sometimes you can do too much research. It will happen this week.

quote on a tire only place:

Hello from TiresPlusStorage, your quotes as requested, 245/40R20RE FALKEN FK-452 99Y BSW UHP -- 200$ each245/40R20 NANKANG NS-II 95Y BSW UHP -- 167$ each 255/40R20 TOYOPROXES S/T 101V BLK UHP -- 280$ each

15 dollars for installation and balancing per tire.

I have asked for clarification on whether that includes taxes...i dont think it does. $200 is the lowest I have found for Falkens, one other place gave me that price as part of a rim package.

Man,

Thanks for the sizes and prices. I might look into this for my car.

You are totally right about too much research. I am frying my brain this weekend. I must have done at least 25 hours research this weekend alone.

I am still looking for mine as they are on back-order for 3-4 weeks.

Are you planning to install your factory TPMS? iForged Wheels makes a set of fitting to have them put on so you that warning light won't be staring at you all season long

May I ask what offset did you get for your rims? I most likely will get 20x8.5 (42mm) but wonder if a 40mm will make any difference.
