Check with a reputable tire dealer; most will test fit tires to your car and help you select the right tire-wheel combination. Best wishes.

Dude, I know all about AWD and the effects of diffrent tire sizes... The question that I was origionally asking was what the widest tire is that will fit on the SVX wheel... My sexond question was if $400 is a decient deal on a set of excellent condition RX-7 wheels and tires... Also, How do ya tell if the RX-7 wheels are the reenforced ones or the unreenforced ones?

Thanks though
