I have two sets of AVS rims, both the same sizes.

One set of gold AVS Model 6 wheels (latest style), and a set of silver Model 5 wheels (older style).

Im looking at selling one set now, and leaving the other set on the car for when i sell the car next year. So wanting to know what rim has the broadest appeal so that i can leave them on the car for when i sell it.

Thoughts ppl? I dont have a digi cam so these photos courtesy of other ppl are the best i can do.

Gold Model 6

Silver Model 5

I like the silver ones better myself.  I think they give it a classier look whereas the gold ones look more like you're out to do some bruising.

Just my humble opinion.

Actually, I prefer the gold ones, but wouldn't you get more selling them seperately then with the car?

Hey Roy,

Keep your model6's cause they're the same as mine! Look much better than the 5's. Looking at the pic they look like 17's? If you were to sell them seperately you'd get alot more for them. I bought mine 2nd hand and they were NOT cheap!

Also, whats the width of your goldies?

P.S: Sorry for bothering you about the intercooler last fortnight, i got it all sorted ;)

Fronts are 17 x7, rears 17 x 8. They are a good fit on an R32 GSTt, i imagine your 200SX could swallow a much bigger wheel ;)

I like both, though i suspect my Model 6s would look better if they were white against the silver bodywork...no need to apologise, wasnt any trouble, good to hear you got the problem sorted.

heeey that's my pic! :D

y'know, if you'd just showed pics of 2 types of rims, i would have said the silver ones straight away. But on your car, i like the gold ones...they actually made me think how nice your car looked, instead of it looking the same as every other silver R32 :)

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
