First off, I know that the car hasn't hit the streets yet. I just wanted to start this in case someone here buys a new '13 LTZ and gets new wheels, hopefully they will have me in the back of their mind.

So, what I am looking for is the wheels off of the new 2013 Chevrolet Malibu LTZ's which are 19". I would prefer to buy the package of wheels, tires, and TPMS. Willing to pay top dollar for these puppies :D

When you hear of any take-offs, or you yourself are looking for a buyer, I'm your man!

(I know that they aren't going to roll off the lots til around January, I just want to be the first to have these wheels on a 08-12 model :))

Pontiac had wheels that looked exactly like that on their GTP models, like the G6 GTP. You could look into getting wheels by searching for those ones. They were exactly like that in both chrome and stainless/silver painted, its a pretty standard GM wheel.

However, 19s are not the best choice. Those dont look bad at all, but tires for 19s are hard to come by with all these shortages lately, and very high $$$, because 19" is an abnormal size.

Look into 20s, youll pay a significant amount less than getting official GM wheels, and you will have a much better selection. Plus you wont drop over $1000 on the low end on just tires when it comes time to replace. Before you look at 19s, just check out the price on those tires, no bueno....

I've looked into GTP wheels pretty extensively. Can't seem to find any for under $1000 which I think is a little ridiculous for 18's.

I like the 19's because I want my car to look like a stock sport model.

I used to have 20's on my old Altima, but I only it about half of what I paid for them when I sold them and that was a wheel with the most popular bolt pattern so I can't imagine what I would get for 5x110 wheels.

I'm hoping something turns up, I miss having big wheels!

Check craigslist, I often see them for $500 with tires

I always check CL every 2-3 days. I haven't seen any come up yet. I have seen Sky wheels on there though. $200 for 4 chrome ones; wish I saw the posting sooner because the wheels were already gone 1 day after the guy posted them.

G6 GTP wheels are close, but not "exactly" the same. I tried for quite some time to sell mine on here. Kinda glad now they didn't sell...

I thought the same thing when I went back to learn this car for our team. Those wheels are sweet! First thing I said was that they would look perfect on my lowered silver malibu. Up close its a great looking wheel. I am jealous of the new interior also.
