Anything with the five lug pattern should work. I have an OEM set off of a 95 GXE w/covers. I don't think it will look that bad...well unless you have alot of outter appearance upgrades, then it might look pretty bad. If interested just e-mail me.

The 2000 GXE base model comes with 15" wheels. The brake sizes should be the same for all models.

Uh, I should have indicated which question my response was to.

No, the SE does not come with bigger brakes...

Yes, you can use the 15" wheels.

BTW - using the stock steel wheels is probably the best option for wheels for snow tires, although I am too vain and will be ordering cute new wheels for my snows...
