Will these wheels work for an FX?

I saw these 21" OEM (I assume) wheels on a 2012 M56 at a local Infiniti Dealer and I was wondering if these would fit an FX (2nd Gen in this case). Looks way too low profile and I don't know much about wheels and what it would take.
The picture does not do this justice but they are really nice looking. It is a very Dark gray with a metallic finish (I could do with a little less gloss)

Thanks in advance!

Those are actually fx rims on that m56, they probably custom painted some fx 21's and put them on.
 
Ahh...good catch! I guess the color just threw me off. I have my answer then...sitting in my
garage. :tongue (2):
Thanks!
 
Looks like black chrome finish. Should fit, just need a different tire size.

So your checklist:
-Aero lip with possible custom paint on bottom.
-AE lights
Side mirror leds
Wheels
SS knobs

According to the commercials... Santa only does Mercedes! looks like your SOL! Let the mods begin!
 
Phil right? Those rims I doubt will clear the FX50S akebono brake calipers in the front. Looks tight already with those regular calipers from the pic. And BTW, HELLO CURB RASH! ;)

Those wheels certainly look like a set of FX50 21" rims that have had the black chrome treatment.
 
Jonas,
Exactly (RR). Since it appears to be what we have, I am sure it is prone to that too. I lBMW the color on this though. Speaking of rashes, any recommendations on a reconditioner that will help me with the nasty case on rear right wheel? I understand it is an overnight thing.

Fxlr8, thanks again. Why would they tease this on the M?? Showroom shenanigans?
 
This at Berman's? If so I'll see it next week sometime during my oil change.

This was actually in Lisle. Yes, I go all the way there from the city after a bad service episode at Berman's. 30 min on the highway. Not bad and a chance to let the FX 'breathe'. :p
 
Wait did you already buy these? They were probably expensive from a dealership.

Can you elaborate on the issue you had there?

Damage after a service engagement and not the best customer service afterwards. May have been isolated but it was my first time trying somewhere else other than my original dealer.

Didn't buy them. Was wondering if they'd work before realizing that those are painted OEM 21"s.
Never really considerd Fields because the Eisenhower is typically moving (for me) and predictable as opposed to the Eden's/Kennedy which seems to be a parking lot more often than not. I will check the out though.
