Question Infiniti QX56 rims on 2007 Lexus GX470

Hi All,

I am a new owner of a 2007 Lexus GX470. Love everything about the car except the stock 17 inch rims. I am not a fan of big shiny rims either so I am looking for OEM quality rims. One good fit I found is Infiniti QX56 rims.. Will these directly fit the GX ? What mods may I have to do to make them fit ?

Here are the specs on both sets of rims:

GX470 Fitment
Bolt Pattern (in): 6x5.50
Bolt Pattern (mm):6x139.7
Offset (mm):0 to 20
Front CB (mm):108
Rear CB (mm):108
Stud Size: 12x1.5

Infiniti QX560 Fitment
Bolt Pattern (in): 6x5.50
Bolt Pattern (mm): 6x139.7
Offset (mm):15 to 30
Front CB (mm)77.8
Rear CB (mm):77.8
Stud Size: 12x1.25

I am not too well versed with rim fitment but to my novice eyes, looks like the Centre Bore (CB) would be the issue. I have seen people mount FJ rims on the GX and looks like it has a smaller CB too.

If it does not fit directly, Will I need to get the CB machined for the QX56 rims ? Also these rims are 22" .. But are OEM quality Infiniti rims.. Any issues due to the size ? Please let me know.

Thanks in advance !

I have posted the same in the GX470 forums but hoping for a more technical answer and confirmation here

almost all Toyota, Mitsubishi, Isuzu and older vehicles with manual 4x4 hubs have large center bores on the 6-5.5 wheel fitments... Nissan went the way of Chevy and used 77.8 mm I know which wheels you are looking at and they definitely look good, should fit with the proper size tire as well, and yes, to make them work, they will have to be machined to even come close to fitting... It may not work at all, the hub bores are not only big in diameter, but if I recall correctly, the hub protrudes a decent amount...
