17" Factory OEM chrome wheels for sale

Post by Desi21 »

Let me start off by saying I bought my 2006 Pontiac Vibe brand new and have owned it ever since. I can't get rid of it, even if I wanted to- which I don't. It's got 190k miles and has given me ZERO problems. Nothing out of the ordinary. I get an oil change every 7500 miles, rotate tires regularly, new brakes, new fluids, and that's about it! Seriously, best car I've ever owned. Not even close. With that being said...
I've got a 2006 Pontiac Vibe with the premium OEM 17" chrome wheels for sale. There is one wheel that has a rim that is leaking a bit, starting to get some chrome peel and i'm not interested in trying to repair it. I bought some new rims and I'm looking to sell these. I'm selling them as a set AS IS for $100 plus whatever it costs to ship to your address. Or if you just want 1 of them i will sell it for $50 + shipping. If you only need 1 great, and if you want a set you will just have to do some minor work on the one rim. A new set on eBay is going for $500+ (http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/2626243097 ... dispItem=1). Contact me at adesi21@yahoo.com if interested with your address and I'll get you a total cost with shipping. I'm in Charlotte, NC.

I have never seen this wheel option. Were those factory or a dealer upgrade?

I too was curious. Thanks Thomas for the clarification. FYi ... are you staying DRY down there in Houston? Is the Vibe on higher ground so it doesn't become salvage. Update us soon.

These actually were from the factory. The price tag on them from the factory was ridiculously high, which is why you don't see a bunch of them on the road. I worked for GM at the time, so i got a pretty hefty discount (something like 40% off retail) so i decided to go for it. In my 11+ years driving this thing around in several different states (including first 7 years in Michigan) i only saw these rims one other time.

I believe it's the same bolt pattern but not 100% positive. Should fit

They will only fit your 2010 if it has the 1.8L engine.

All 2003-2008 Vibes & 2009-2010 1.8L Base Vibes = 5×100
2009-2010 2.4L Base, AWD & GT = 5×114.3

Yeah, I've never seen them before in 4 years of Vibe ownership. TRB sent me a picture of the sale brochure with a Vibe that had them, though. I like those so much more than the other factory 17" wheels (which I hate with a fiery passion). I'm not in the market for new wheels, but I'm sure someone will be interested.
