Xico's new wheels

Hi Everyone,
Because of the many responses asking what wheels are on Xico's car I wanted to post a couple pictures and information.
His wheels are Avus AF-501 wheels with a custom seal grey painted center and chrome lip. He has a 2 1/2" lip in the front with a 4 1/2" in the rear (which both clear his Le Mans brakes). All Avus wheels are available through FVD USA for the best prices out there.


Wheels Available:
501's:

502's:

M01's:

M02's:

There are more wheels on the way also.
If you have any questions or would like pricing please call us at 954-781-7116.

I like those M02's... nice cross between a radial spoke and a slip spoke design.

Brian, Do you have weights for any of the rims? What is the build quality comparable to?

Xico's rims looked very sharp.

Those pictures do not do Xico's car justice... He has one bad *** looking turbo... It looks awesome in person....

I would have to give it my nood for the best of the group that met up at Lake Mary...

Way to go Xico....

Avus Wheels

Hey Guys,

Thanks for all the postive comments on the car. We really had a great time this weekend. Can't post all the pics...

I am having dinner with Robert from Avus tonight, and will get the details, but he had offered to give 6-speed members a price under 5K for this fitment. By the way, I am running a 19x11.5 with 315/25-19 Pilot SPort II's (Awesome tire!!) and had the car totally loaded all weekend and had no rubbing (even with 100 mph dips on our wonderful freeways!!). Fronts are the 235/35-19 front on 19x8.5.

Make sure you get this fitment because it works great!

Thanks!

RH

The 501 has a heavy look to it, I am curious as to the weights?

I will talk to Robert and get some exact weights this morning for you guys. The M02 is by far the lightest though. Build quality is by far the best I have seen in a long while, I personally think the fit and finish is better than HRE. As FVD Brian mentioned we worked up a special deal for 6 Speeders. I spoke to Robert at length last evening and he would like Brian and myself to both extend this special pricing to any member of the forums. If you have any fittment or technical questions please feel free to call either one of us. And if you are in the Tampa Bay area feel free to stop by for a peek, I have all 4 models in stock and on display, both Turbo and Non.
