What rims from other cars will fit a Maxima? Looking to buy used snow tires on rims.

I am looking to buy snow tires on rims for my Maxima. If I can find a good deal I will buy used (localy). I have been looking at the local want-ads and there seem to be some pretty good deals on snow tires off other cars, I haven't seen any off a Maxima yet. Does anyone know what other popular cars use the same offset/lug pattern?

I just bought some used rims and snow tires(205/65/15) from a 96 Camry V6 owner for my 97 SE. I haven't installed them yet but I did measure the bolt pattern and they seem identical.

I agree with erty67 but the mian thing you have to worry about is the center bore. Since nissan has one of the bigger center bore. I already tried Honda Accord V6,Toyota Camry, Lexus IS300,Mitsubishi Eclipse stock rims and not one fit due to the center bore.

Mazda MX-6 wheels will also fit, not sure about the center bore though.

I have a set of snow tires I'm trying to get rid of. I don't need them now since I have a beater for the winter. They are oem 15" steel with Pirelli Winter 210 SnowSport.

Check out the pictures here.

E-mail and we can work something out.

Do these all have the correct offset/centerbore and whatever else for the Max? I was hopeing to pick up something and throw it on, I did not want to deal with having them modified.

Your in VA? You had winter tires and now a winter beater in VA? I was only going to buy used if I could get a good deal and I wanted to pick something up locally. But if the price is right I will definatly consider, I'll drop you an e-mail.

Watch out on the offset of some of those rims. They might require spacers.

I run RX7 rims on my 3rd gen, but they need a spacer in the front, and more than a spacer in the back. I think they fit a 4th gen better tho.
