Factory 18" 7-spoke aluminum alloy wheels

Has any one seen or can perhaps post a picture of these optional wheels for the G37x Coupe? Can't seem to find a picture on infinitiusa.com either, just a description indicating how the wheels will 'enhance the look of the vehicle."

Imo the stock 18" rims look decent in person, however i'm trying to get a sense of whether these optional rims look better and are worth the $$....$1,650 option.

I've seen a pic somewhere. I'll try to find it again. def not worth the extra money. Get the stock and then upgrade to aftermarkets later.

Thanks Triple_X, appreciate your help in finding the pic. I agree, they are expensive. I recall the first time I had one of the rims refinished on my '04 6MT coupe being surprised when the wheel guy told me they were $400 a pop.

I was interested in these too when ordering my 37X. As best I can tell there is no 7-spoke alternate wheel. It's actually a nine-spoke wheel that looks a lot like the 10-spoke version for the S coupe. I did see a photo of the wheel and there are pictires out there on the Net of a magazine that test drove and photographed a blue slate g37 couple with the nine-spoke wheels. See if you can get your dealer to show you the accessory guide that the dealer itself gets. That's where I saw the photo of the 9-spoke alt. wheel. I like that wheel a little better than the stock wheel but not $1625 better, with no credit for the stock wheel.

Pics of optional 9 spoke wheel for the x

Found an article dsindm may have referred to, 1/9/09 review from 'Left Lane News'. There are many images beyond the (3) at the bottom of the page. Although the review is fairly positive, on 2nd thought i'll put the $1,650 toward an after-market solution:
