Wat Rims Are These?

[s13silk]

I saw these rims today, im interested in wat they are as they had no markings on them to identify wat they were. It was on a 32 GT-R if your wondering:

they look like the AVS T6 rims...same as i've got on my car, but they look shocking when they're that small.

[s13silk]

Yeah it wouldnt matter too much that they're small though, theyd be going onto my silvia, and i dont really care about looks that much, 16's arent too bad on my car. What made me interested in them was that they had an absolutely massive clearance of the skyline calipers.

Is it an old AVS T6 model perhaps? I google imaged the AVS T6 and it doesnt look exactly the same, close but different.

Offset is the distance between the mounting pad of the rim to the centerline of the rim yea? It looks like on this rim that the mounting pad was almost central (ie zero offset) but had a lot of meat on the hub that moved the spokes out and gave a lot of clearance for the calipers. Why wouldnt more rims be of that design to clear calipers?

they are the same style as TE37's, which should clear your calipers too

this will help you with offset. Once you see the diagram you'll understand better.

Yeah i understand offset. Thats showing wat i said ie "Offset is the distance between the mounting pad of the rim to the centerline of the rim"

Those TE37s look a bit like the rim i took a photo of. But its still a little different

I don't think they look like TE37s other than being white and having the same amount of spokes.

Another vote for AVS, but unsure of what model.

[s13silk]

Yeah well it doesnt look like exactly like the avs ones ive searched for.

[dezz]

its because the rim you took a photo of is like a 13". the spokes are so short that they look different. if it was a 17" or 18" it'd look different. I've got them on my car.....

And they don't look like TE37's at all

[foznice]

hence I said the same "style" as TE37's.

[dezz]

in that they're round and have 6 spokes....lol

Not putting shit on your choice of Rims.....I am sure they will come out quite nice if you like spend $500

fixing them......

R32 GTR should only be wearing 2 /3 piece rims(Black inner and Polished wall) or gtr33 Rims(Black).

My2c....

Actually the R32 should be wearing watever rims the owner of the car wants it to wear. These rims dont need any money spent on them, a good clean wouldnt go astray though.

I saw these ones though (enkei, not sure of model), apparently a magnesium alloy composite (or wateva thats known as) and a race only rim. Not sure if thats legit just wat the owner recons.
