- Hello, I have just purchased a Nissan NX 2000 and
- I have to get put snow tires on for the winter.
-
- The problem is I would prefer not to use the
- aluminum rims that came with the car over the
- winter. I want to buy steel rims but Nissan does
- not make them for the 2000. The NX 1600 has steel
- rims available but they do not fit the 2000.
-
- I have three questions.
-
- Does anyone know if there is another company that
- manufactures steel rims for the car??
-
- Also, is it bad to constantly change tires on aluminum
- rims. Can the metal be damaged and result in slow leaks?
-
- The rims are supposed to be plastic coated. Does this
- really protect them from heavy salt conditions??
-
-
- Please email replies.
- Thanks.
