Talking I got New Shoes TOO...AVS Model 5s!!!

Just put them on today...AVS Model 5's Powdercoated Chrome 19x9 (front) and 19x10 (rear). Like lexforlife I have the Goodyear F1 gs-d3 245/35/19 and 275/30/19 (luckily mine were free )

PLease excuse the dirt had limited time due to my wife wanting to go see a Pops Fernandez concert in SF

Special thanks to

Shibui-Soke
and
Ron (Suprasize)

and now on with the pics

Very nice. But you know that open design is just screaming for a brake upgrade.

Very nice, my all-time favorite wheels. I would have bought them except that they don't come in 20s. Did you see the one on the Top Secret Skyline? The spoke on the rear wheel curved soooo deep, insane!
