You will never have a problem selling them. Finding clean ones to buy may be a problem. There out there though.

All I know is there are alot aftermarket rims I see on s2000 that I dislike, as a buyer of a s I would want the stock rims. If the cars height is stock and has aftermarket rims it just looks wrong to me. Nothing looks better than stock rims on a stock s except switching ap2 rims to ap1 that looks good but perfer ap1 on ap1.

If the cars lowerd then thats a whole other story.

You made a good choice.

I would keep them. Get one of those wall racks to hang them up out of the way.

In for pix of the CRX please.

I keep my pristine condition AP1 wheels protected in plastic, in my nice dry climate controlled basement. The wheels also have the original 2002 SO2s on them just in case I want to go back to stock. I'd keep the wheels if keeping the car, I think it does add to the value when you finally do sell if you have all OEM parts. Of course, I don't plan to sell my car just yet, after a short six years of ownership/stewardship.

I went out and bought a set of AP2 V1's so I could have 17's. No need to save if they are already curbed. If they are pristine keep them, if not let 'em go.

I like the five spoke also just wish they made them 17" from oem. They are nice for a stock rim. I plan on removing clear coat and polish these rims at some point also polish inside of the rim brake side as well as the porous finish on the edge of the spokes. I think with alot of work these rims can look sweet.
