yes they are alloys not hubcaps. by the way, i have a GLE that came with them. the first few thousand GLE made for 2000 had them as well. then they wised up and put the 5 spokes on. o well, ill get new rims soons enough.

Yep some early 00's had these horrible hubcaps, these made the Maxima look cheap. Worst rims/hupcaps on the Maxima goes to the 85/86 Maxima and the early 00 GXE/GLE rims and hubcap for some GXE's. Those 85/86 Max rims looked like h*ll as did the 00/01 ones I just wonder what were they thinking.

Those spinner hubcaps are for sale in 14, 15, and 16" sizes at my local Autozone. I think they're like 100 bucks. I'm thinking of getting some. Not.

But if anyone wants me to pick you up a set, I'll be happy to ....kloogy, they'd look great on your ride. really. I swear.

Hubcaps only came on the 00 GXE model equipped with a 5 spd manual. if you get the GXE auto, it will come with alloys.
