Re: Wheels that fit the SVX

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
I don't know if it is or not; I know there is some tolerance in the AWD system, and 1mm sounds like a small difference. Up to you, really.

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
Hi,
I installed the original 16" rims again. I drove along the Autobahn for 200km.... When i was in the city and turned left or right with low speed, the car made noise and vibrated very much. So I guess, that the center diff is damaged? After I let the car cool down, it ran perfectly. I think I will remove the legacy turbo tranny and install a sti 5mt dccd transmission. Greetings |

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
i have a set of 4 rims like these, the only problem is 3 of the rims are 18x7.5 and 1 is 18x8... there is a list here of all the sizes offered
http://www.jdmultimate.com/product/i-180209.aspx i like how the 8 in wide rim looks on my car but im affraid it might strain suspension which one would best fit? |

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
Price AUD$1,900 plus tyres (tyres $400 each)
Size 19x8.5 Offset +42mm front +22mm rear running 275/30's all round Brand of wheel Enkei Name of wheel rp03 mat forged (lighter then original wheels and tyres) Who sells the wheel EBay and most companies This combo gives the car a staggered look and makes it look pretty fat on the road, rear camber bolts required to tuck the wheels under the guard with these tyres but the benefit is the handling feels better when connering at speed

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
how about these?
http://www.importdpsonline.com/enkei.../i-180209.aspx i have on wheel like this but its 18x8 and i would think the 18x9 +38 would look better and more wider. the only thing im afraid of is ordering them and finding out they don't sit right on the car.. |

the 18x9 rim face would move out by 35.75mm my front rim face sits 25.5mm further out (18x9 extends this by 10mm) my rear rim face sits 45.5mm further out (18x9 is 10mm less but you may still need some slight camber or remove the wheel arch lining or both)

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
ok thanks and i could buy both front and back with +38 offset and then camber the rear ones which will make them look more staggered in the back? so how is that your front wheels have a different offset than your rear?

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX
Cause I wanted the staggered look and wanted to fill the rear arches with rim and the rear looking more concave then the front
