Can anyone point to a pic showing the original wheels on the 2000 XR6 VVT? There are two sets of wheels that I tend to see a lot of, and I don't know which is which. Thanks :sm_headba

Whats an XR6 VVT? You mean VCT?
There are a few getting around, but I think the standard ones are the "twisty" 5 spoke 16" rims... Like these... Could be wrong, I know the standard was the 16", with the option being a 17". |

Do you mean VCT? If it's an AU1 & has the body kit, it should come with the AU1 17s, otherwise the 5 fingered spoke 16s. If it's an AU2, it will probably come with the S style 16s, but may come with the AU2 17s as an option.
AU1 17s:

99% sure that from AU2 onwards the XR6 HP got the 16" rims standard but XR6 VCT and XR8 had the 17" rims standard. Could be wrong though.

The buzz-saw rims are cool.
My XLS ute came with them when I got it. Here's an old pic of it when i first bought it:

Just to clarify, the 16" buzz saw rims were standard on the AUII XR6 VCT. When the late edition AUII was released in April/May 2001, the VCT became standard with the 17" rims.
