Default GS430 with FX wheels

Anyone know if the FX 18" wheels will fit the GS430?

This is what I've found:
OEM wheels on the FX --
18x8, 40 offset
20x8, 40 offset

Bolt pattern 5x114.3
Lug size 12mmX1.25
Center bore 66.1

I'm not so sure I'd advise you to do so, but yes they fit.

Those are the 20" but yes the 18" will fit as well but the offsets might be odd on a GS...

Not a fan of the 20's on there but 18's should look completely different.

Good call-didn't think about that.

This isn't anything too serious. Just saw a set for under $300 and thought it may look good.

I'd keep looking if I were you. ISX50 wheels go for decently cheap nowadays.

I'll put a pic of my car with te wheels when I get home. It actually looks nice, and the center caps you can take off the Infiniti logo. It has 2 small holes that you can fill with bondo and paint it the sane color as the rim.
