Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
By the way, the stock SVX wheel weighs 20 pounds,
(about 40 pounds with a stock size tire.) and a stock Tribeca wheel weighs 29.8 pounds. Heavier wheels and tires hurt both accelleration and braking.

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
I've long since given up on trying to convince people not to put wheels heavy enough for a freight train on their cars. Most seem only to care about the bling factor and the price. So I guess bling, and also bling. I guess that's what bling-bling means. Heh.

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
Ok never had to buy wheel nuts before... I realize they are readily available for next to nothing .... most are 60 degree cones, and I need 12x1,25 thread.

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
quik question would a 38mm offset stick in more then a 45mm offset ? which has a better chance of not running the fenders on a 19" wheel ?
thanks guys

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
Thanks for the tire fitment w/Tribecca rims. For those who think this is a bling-bling facter, isn't all rims choices a bling-bling choice. If I can get an almost new set of tires/rims for $300 that look good on a car, of course I'm going to buy them. I've been with the aftermarket rims and try finding a replacement wheel 3 years later when you've dented one in a NY pothole. Good luck. I've long ago decided that good looking OEM wheels may a better choice than expensive aftermarket. If I can sell the tires to offset the cost of a good fit replacement tires,so much the better.
