Correct. The SVX is 5x114.3.

Ok, so thats why discount tire direct has a wheel that supposedly fits the svx but it says "5-100" on the bolt pattern (http://www.discounttiredirect.com/di...id=006494&fcb=), so it must be double drilled

Well it shows the 5x114.3 along with the 5x100 and 5x108, so are all of the wheels double drilled?

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX

You'll probably need hub-centric rings to make it right as well. Pick up something that's designed for the car. Prodrive or OZ SuperLegs perhaps? You get what you pay for.

All I meant was, "do your homework before you buy" and not rely on what it says on their site, because sometimes those sites are flat out wrong and you don't find out until they ship you a product you can't use.

I have no idea; I didn't follow the link.

Cheers

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX

Craigslist ad says:
"subaru wheels, custom set or stock - $1 (moundridge)"
Wow, wheels for $1. Then on the inside it says $400.
Yeah, that is the guy I want to buy stuff from...

What is the name and series of the wheel?
What is the width and offset?

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX

Will these rota's IK-F's fit? They're 17x8 with 42 offset?

It sounds about right. I believe that is the same spec as the ones I have (see sig), and if those tires are 245/40s then it should be a good fit. 225/40s will be a little short, but still usable.

They look nice, and the price is right.

Edit: the offset on mine is +45, but there is still enough room that 3mm shouldn't make that much difference.

IDk about the rims, but that steering wheel is worth picking up. If he had them on an STi then I think they ought to fit though. They are the same size and offset as these: http://www.subaru-svx.net/forum/show...86&postcount=9. Will depend on the size of the tires too though.

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX

Been a while since I posted. I had some koing 18's apparently a very universal lug pattern it showed 4x100 4x114.3 5x100 5x112 and 5x114.3. 8" wide a +35 offset is what it showed but they looked like a higher offset.


I never really liked them and recently I came across these, they are dub's
single drilled 5x114.3 8.5" wide with a +34 offset. With the bad springs and struts I have when there are 2 people or more in the car the right rear fender rubs the tire but just me it is ok. I am replacing the springs with the motorsport drop springs and getting replacement oem struts for now. I really think that spring is completely shot strut too but the spring more.

Re: Wheels that fit the SVX

He had them on a WRX, and the rubber is 225/45/17. I was thinking they should fit.

Will an STi steering wheel mount on an SVX and be fully functional?
