I have a set of four 14 x 5.5 steel "generic" rims available for sale
in the Framingham, MA or Somers, NY areas of US. $120 for the set.
I'd prefer that you pick them up or I meet you somewhere convienent,
rather than trying to figure out how to ship them to you. I'm only
selling them as a set of 4. (If you can find another owner or three if
you only want 2 rims for winter use or for use as a full-sized spare,
that's fine, but you do the split of the set.)
I used the rims on my 2001 Toyota Prius between Nov. 2005 and April
2006 (<5 months), for about 2000 miles. I purchased them last fall
(2005) in a tire/wheel package for use with my winter tires (Nokian
WR). Since I recently moved out of MA (and do not have tire storage
anymore, an unforseen circumstance last fall), I put the 4-season
Nokian WRs that were on these rims onto my OEM alloy rims, and disposed
of the old/worn OEM Bridgestone Potenza RE92 XL tires.
New from tirefactory.net these rims were $49.99 each last Nov.
The specs for the US 2001-2003 Toyota OEM Prius rims are:
14x5.5" 100mm bolt circle, (not sure if 40 or 45mm offset), 4 hole
(same wheel as the older 1993-2002 Corolla, and the pre-2004 Echo)
I don't have the exact specs on these steel rims, but they did work on
my 2001 Prius and they are stamped 14x5.5 on the inside of the rims.
Only 4 holes, so it's easy to put the wheels onto the car with this
generic rim!
Note: these will not fit on the 2004-current Prius, whose US rims are:
15x6 JJ, PCD 100mm, 45mm offset, 5 hole
(same wheel as the Matrix and the newer (2003-?) redesign of the
Corolla)
If you are interested in these other steel rims, let me know, or wait
for my next post about them. (I may be planning on doing a similar
tire changeout on my 2004 within the next month (so the rims aren't
currently available), and I don't have the use dates/mileage handy or a
price yet. New from tirefactory.net the rims were $59.99 last fall.)
