What size rims and tires? I need back spacing as well. I just want to confirm that no spacers are needed.

You give them your car info(year,make and model) and they are making/picking up a set for you.

These are 22x10.5 all around
I went with the +42 offset.. the guys at vossen wanted me to go to the +30 because no one else has done so yet but i played the safe route.
Tires i went with a cheap 285/35R22 i forgot what brand. Running no spacers. The front seem perfect and the rear could prolly use a few mm if you want them perfect.
and im running H&R Springs which makes a world of difference.
My neighbor has the same FX as me, you can tell the difference side by side

Very nice pics. Iam also very interested with going with the same set up. Vossen CV1 in matte graphite 22's maybe run with 285 or 295/40. How does the ride feel with the H&R +22's setup compared to stock?
 
Hey guys
What is the stud/bolt pattern and offset on the us delivered 2012-13 models please.
I'm in Australia and led to believe they are 5*114.3 +40
Is that the same there?
If so where I'd most popular to buy rims? Car id or tyre rack or other?
Thanks

I put on the vossen rims first and the ride felt a little more hard and louder I noticed but its probably because I bought the cheapo tires .... I don't notice the noise anymore (maybe it broke in or I got use to it) a few weeks after I threw on the H&R springs.... Ride height felt the same but the car was noticeably riding much smoother and felt like in turns it was much more stabile... I park my fx is a small 4 level parking lot and I always have to go up a steep ramp after a sharp 180 degree left turn to go up and when my fx was stock I would always spin the tires going up the ramp.... Since I put on the springs it hasn't done that anymore
 
looks good, thinking of doing same setup..diff wheel though.. curious if it does clear the akebonos.. also hows the ride quality.. has it rub? what tire brand/ and setup..
 
So I ordered some CV1's from Discount Tire last week. I asked the manager if they would indeed fit over the Akebonos and he replied that it wouldn't be a problem even after talking to the folks at Vossen.

Today I received a call back from said manager giving me the old "I have good news and bad news." The bad news is the staggered setup w/22x9 front and 22x10.5 rear won't work. The good news is that a 22x10.5 all around will work, but one offset ET42 will require spacers (which discount tire does not deal with) and the ET30 will stick out about a half inch from the fender.

He said the sales rep in Miami went as far as to get his brother who works at an Inifiniti dealer to come over with a FX50 to see how they would fit. I'm not a big fan of buying a set of wheels from them if they can't put them on. I'm also not too happy about having my wheels stick out from my fenders. My current winter setup has this issue and my white paint has been trashed by the little "rust" spots from what I assume is the salt. I have used a clay to get rid of them, but this winter is never ending and some came back.

Any thoughts or advice would be appreciated in advance.
 
Yerbol was running(before he switched to BBK) Vossen's 10.5 all around without any issues on his FX50S.

They look great to me, even with 15mm spacers installed.

Wow that looks really nice. A drop all around would make it look even better. What's the specs on your wheels? And do you have spacers on it? I'm thinking of downsizing to 22's myself.
