Stock Wheels

So, lately I have noticed that the stock wheels on my P5 (before the mid year update) look similar to alot of other stock wheels out there, namely 2nd Gen Probe GTs..... is it the same wheel with just a diffrent logo cap in the middle?

kinda an odd occurance i think

Stock PGT wheels are similar, but they're directional. The spokes are angled, so they can be mounted backwards if you aren't careful. I like the Protege wheels better as well, although I like my FD RX-7 rims the best.

Yeah man. 2nd gen Probe GT rims are heavy. About 22-26 lbs., depending on the year and whether or not they are chromed.

The stock PGT wheels are a little different as said above. I use to own a PGT and they are very heavy especially with the stock 225/50 tires mounted. The wheels its self is either an inch or half inch wider I believe though
