Those rims on the OSV (http://www.alero.org/gallery/bigimages/2001-osv_back_2.jpg) are real nice. Anyone know of any around that resemble them the most?
Edit: Actually it looks like 2fst4u's got them. What kind are they?
Edit 2: Cardomain, right. 18" Team 5zigen. (N1R Becketts MK6) :)

WRONG!!! on the actual wheel that was on the OSV. The new 5zigen are decent replicas, but they were actually racing hart evolutions c6. I had a set off of one of the OSV vehicles. Oldsman and Crazytaxi have two of the other sets.

Oldsman sold his along with his car, though his were for the OSV minivan, I think.

wow, this got out of control quickly. the guy's looking for OSV knock-offs, not originals. and i hadn't seen that thread from oldsman before, (be it quite funny), i don't think it's real. he could have pulled a lot more money than 3 grand. lol
didn't you see, the guy answered his own question. lol

hey 2fst4u...... didnt know grand am's came with 3.4L engines.
maybe you should pull your head out of your ass then.
The LA1 3400 is a bored-out version of the LG8 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_LA1_engine#LG8). It retains the OHV (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OHV) layout of the previous engine. It was first utilized on the 1996 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1996) U Platform (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_GM_platforms) minivans (listed below) and appeared in a car for the first time in the 1999 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1999) Pontiac Grand Am (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac_Grand_Am) & Oldsmobile Alero (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oldsmobile_Alero). A 92 mm bore brings the displacement to 3.4 L (3350 cc). Like the LG8, the LA1 features numerous common parts with the similar GM High Value engine (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_High_Value_engine) family. Power is up to 170 hp-185 hp (127 kW to 138 kW) and torque is 210 ft·lbf (? N·m).

LMFAO.................................minivan wheels.......dood. if you don't know something you should just keep your mouth shut. people don't know who stupid you are til you open your mouth and remove all doubt.
My car was not sold. but has gone to the drawing board.
crazy and I have the alero and intrigue OSV rims. Kyle had the minivan rims. but soon i shall be blessed with some many new things..........LOL
far a replicas, street rebel has chrome version of knock-offs and then there are a few others out there. the hardest part is finding chrome ones, if you want chrome.

What size tires?
The second pic almost makes the front tires look a little wider than the rears....maybe it's just the angle...
Oldsman

up front are 255/40r18 and out back are 255/40r19. sidewall width upfront is 9" and in the rear is 10". so it is just the pic.
the 18's are from the OSV Alero and the rear are from the OSV intrigue. the front are the biggest tires you can fit on the alero. the rear has to be spaced out to clear the coilovers.
