Don't put multi pattern drilled wheels on it. They look so tacky. I like the privats.

That is possibly the oddest car I've ever seen. I don't know what it is, but it just looks weird.

"Tuner" wheels don't look right on big cars like that to me... But that's just my opinion.
Agreed - not on non sporty cars too.
Go with your other choice.

That is most sane people's opinion.
The privats were the better fit of the two.
He will regret his choice.

once I get them, I'll get some pictures... and go from there. Thankfully, I know the manager at Discount and can just swap them out if necessary.

What I don't get is this: More than whether the wheels look good on the car, the prevailing sentiment is that they are "wrong" for the type of car. But essentially that was Nissan's answer to the BMW 5 Series, right? And those wheels would look normal as fuck on a 5 Series. So what's the problem beyond it being an unusual fitment to an M45?
Hmmm...to me the 5 series, except for the current one, looks 10 times sportier than the m45, especially if it's a e39. And I doubt that Infiniti was seriously targeting the 5 series when they put the m45 out. The thing is more Crown Vic and 7 series than it is 5 series. That said, those wheels would not be ideal on a 5 series either for my taste. They would look better on a Sti, Evo, S2k etc...

I think they look decent, not great. Especially from that side view. What're the specs? In particular the width. If they're 245s or larger, they probably look great from the front/back/three-quarter view. Whatever the case, I'm digging the amount of rubber.
