Well, I have been searching for awhile (3 months or better) and no luck. I checked a few of the factory wheel websites and the cheapest I could find was 800 plus shippin but none of these sites had great reviews from others online. The problem was that once you purchace, they cant be returned once they have been put on a tire changer/balancer, so if the wheels wont balance or out of round...then your stuck with em and putting them on the balancer is the only way to know for sure.

Got brand new SE-R wheels today from the dealership. 1284.00 out the door. A lil more than what I wanted to spend but atleast I know im getting a true and straight wheel. Also, nissan gave me one year warranty on em. Now time to get em installed.

Its because they are knock offs, and NOT forged.... Powder coating should be about $50-$75.00/wheel

Nice move. sucks your car didn't come with them (the OGs were probably curbed to death or spray painted some awful color anyways)

That is a little steep, but the SER rims are great. Had mine off my car for a while and when I put them back on I fell in love again. They play a big part in the car's looks/"identity"

Although theres tons of nice aftermarket rims out there, I have found very few complement the overall "look" of the SER as good as the OEM alloys

(hats off to Nissan for turning out nice stock wheels )

I agree as well. People are always shocked when I tell them that the SE-R wheels are factory lol, that's how you know they are good

Folks, I just sold my SER and still have the original forged rims. They are for sale. I'm in Ottawa, Canada so I'd have to check how much to ship.

Oh man...if only I had the cash. You just ruined Christmas. Next thing you'll be saying that Santa isn't real.


Just a quick question, if anyone knows: who made the OEM SE-R rims? I can't recall seeing that info anywhere.

Word around here is that Rays Engineering mass produced it for Nissan.

How about $600? Actually, they're not as nice as I remembered so the price is negotiable.

I'll post some photos shortly. I'll get back to you on the cost of shipping too. Sorry, my first time shipping so be patient with me...

There is curb rash on 3 of 4 rims but nothing too large (I'll be sure to include them in the pics). All original (they have not been repainted or fixed in any way). They all have tires mounted but 3 of them are worn and 1 is fairly new and good shape (I had a big nail in the original tire so I had to replace it). I'll throw that tire in for free (it's a great backup tire to have if you end up putting a big nail in one of the tires too). I'll unmount the 3 worn tires before I ship. Sound good?

EDIT: I checked with the Canada Post and it's approx $110. That sound reasonable?
Here are some pics

question on the 2nd and 4th pic 1st post... is that rust there?

The scuffing is pretty significant I'd have to get these painted. I'll talk to the wife and get her feeling, it's nice of you to offer the tire. I've been wanting a real tire instead of the donut, too.

Give me a day to get back to you bro.
