1995 Probe GT factory chrome wheels.
I bought it second hand in 1999 from a dealer.
Great car
Literally drove the wheels off it.

I know these are pretty inexpensive wheels but remember this is a 13yo car so I don't want to spend a lot of money on wheels. Just wondering what you car guys think.

I don't know what these cost but you could get your old rims stripped and powder coated for less than $200 I'd bet.

Typical 350Z forum response "Crap wheels because their not Volks"


I say their decent and can't be hard to refinish or replace since every Discount Tire, NTB and low-budget tire dealer around here stocks them.

Do a search on wheel weights first.......One model of wheel might be 10 lbs heavier than another even though they look similar

I think these wheels are 18lbs. Lighter than OEM that's for sure.

Yeah but I go for several days without my car. At least not in the winter. When spring comes around and I am riding the bike them maybe. Besides I can sell the OEM rims of the Maxima board for probably $200 for the set. That will offset the cost of these new rims. Remember, this car is going to be my son's car in less than 3 years. I'm not spending mad money on it nor am I going to spend much time on labor to refinish the OEM rims. If my son want's the OEM rims, I'll keep them and let him refinish them. I have better things to do with my time.

The chrome rims on the Oldsmobile I had started peeling and they would drop air way to fast. Killed a set of front tires. I replaced mine with Konig because it was cheaper then trying to get the OEM rims chromed again.

Yeah that's pretty good. Are they the same width and diameter?
