Your dealer should have multiple service vehicles at the moment. Talk with the service manager and have them pull 3 spares out. If that doesn't work call Infiniti cs line and bitch. sorry for your continued bad fortune, but stop waiting for other people to get things done.

Just jack the jack up to the level of the brick and maybe one bump up above and attempt to put your rims on then.
ALSO - (FOR ALL AS WELL! If your car is a G37S(sport) you have to be very careful putting your rims on the front. You can easily chip the paint off your large brake Calipers by hitting the rims inner lip on the edge of the calipers.
I accidently hit the very edge lightly on one caliper and it chiped a chunk about quarter size of a dime off.

Id call the dealer adn tell them to bring over 3 spares so you can drive the car to there shop to get new wheels put on. If your gonna be spending thounds of $ on new wheels from them that is the least they can do. If they say no call another dealership.

Dude listen to me, your not 5 why are yo waiting around for someone else to take charge, having you wife call them? WTF? Get the car on stands rt now! Then Get on the phone, act like a man.... Go buy a set of stock wheels n tires off here or craigslist asap. Or but aftermarket rims, and let insurance reimburse you, there gonna pay anyway. why are you so unsure of yourself? My car would NEVER sit on blocks for 4 days. You gotta get this asap!

Flagrant: I'm assuming you thought you were trying to offer advice? Asking if I was 5yo and that I need to "act like a man"? Um, really? Feel better about yourself now after talking down to someone over the internet?
Since it offended you so much that I had my wife call *GASP*
here's why... ready... she had the time to follow up in the afternoon, I didn't.Whatever, it's the internet... maybe I read your post out of context, or, maybe you wanna bait me into a cyber rumble so you can once again respond w/ an "I'm an alpha" male response again.... Unless you can offer real helpful advice, consider this my last response to you... There you go, you win...
Anyway, thanks to everyone else who offered advice. That's all this thread is for really. Just wanted to know what everyone else went thru and how it was handled...

Well I apologize then, like I said, it's the internet; kinda hard to truly understand the context of some people's posts. No biggie
Anyway, TBH, I honestly thought the car would've been at the shop days ago. I'm used to the insurance co. handling all my claims in a very timely manner so it suprised me that it was taking this long.

The insurance company should have handled getting the car to a safe position until the claim is settled. No way should the owner be liable once the claim examiner saw arrived on the seen.
