Item: AVS Model 6 - A Real Japanese performance rim 17x8

Age: Came with car

Condition: Good, slight gutter rash

Price: $800

To Fit: (What car) I had them on my r33 gtst +30 offset

Location: Central Coast, pick up preferred

Contact: 0418 332 551 or PM me

Comments: I can organise to have the slight gutter rash professionally repaired, that means they would have a freshly machine lip to them, would look sweet, great wheel repairer I have used him before, $200 for machined lip, reason for selling I have just finished refurbishing some other rims. Same wheel repairer used to do my new set.

I was running these rims on my 33 with 235 on the front and 255 on the rear, good offset and good clearance never a problem, and they are really light, true performance rims. All centre caps perfect. The photo was taken just after I hosed off the dust from them sitting in the garage.

Yep I totally agree, I'm kinda bummed that my new rims arn't quite as light but I like the style of them.

White rims are definitely hard to keep clean with brake dust and all...

The low price is definitely not an indication of their quality, I'm just being nice.

damit why aren't u in melbourne!!!! i've been waiting for a set to come up in ages!!! no one has them down here anymore!

i'm so angry!!! lol

Took me forever to sell my set of 18's....no one wanted em. even though they weigh fark all (comparable to TE's)

I think its about $100 to courier them to melbourne from memory... get a shipping quote, you may be surprised...

Yep, doesnt cost much at all. I sent mine to QLD I think

Bump it up... What no one wants true lightweight japanese rims at a low price anymore...

I suppose all of the youngins are saying "but they don't have dish",

no your right no dish, their for performance, not posing...

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
