yes I have been seeing this alot lately. They are the 3rd gen SE rims on a 4th gen (usually the 95/96's). Is this supposed to be this way or would you guess someone did this on their own? I've probably seen 5 like this. If this is something that Nissan did, why? just curious if anyone else has seen this before.

I don't think Nissan did it. But if you want to I'll trade you straight up.

No dru they are not the hubcaps. Being parked right next to a max with these on is as close as I can get, and I do know the difference between hubcaps & rims....and I know 3rd gen SE rims seeing that I owned a 3rd gen SE for 3 years....

Interesting....do your hubcaps have a center cap on them to? I've never seen them like that before...

I got 3rd Gen rims on my 95. I thought I was the only one until I saw one at the LSP meet earlier this month. My parents bought the car when it first came out so there were probably some leftover rims and my parents were duped.

I gotta start saving up for some rims cause they look absolutely horrible on my car.

I've seen a few like this too. I think I remember seeing a '97-'99 GXE with these once before here in NJ.
