Hey all,

I love my 95 Q-ship, and wish to get the cool early classic turbine wheels, which had those hub center plates, similer to a huge billet of turned aluminum.

But, I note that on Ebay, all the wheels are categorized 90 to 94, and 95-onwards.. Does this mean the 94 factory wheels will not fit a 95?


Many thanks.

I have a 94 Q45 base that has 95 Q45 multi spoke wheels that were swapped at the dealer in 1997 when I bought the car. I would say they are interchangeable.

Q45 wheels are interchangeable from 1990-2008.

I had 2008 Q45 wheels on my 95 Q.

Obviously, it has been too long since you were a Q45 driver/owner !!!!!! Easy to fix.

Lionhart unless you are just attached to the classic look I would try to get some 16" or 17" at minimum. The selection of tires for 15" is not longer very good for higher peformance tires. VR is probably the best your going be able to find these days. You can find some nice 2nd Gen wheels for next to nothing and increase you tire selection by 10X.

Hell, the tire selection is not good in 16" nor 17" either for a heavy car.

18x8 is really a minimum size. 18.8.5 or even 18x9 is much better.

We have 12 cars, and another 8 have come and gone in the past 5 years... It happens. :)
