help solar pick out some wheels and offset questions
im looking at a set of 19x8.5 adr battle exe wheels that are 35mm offsets
im assuming since the svx is a 55mm offfset and going to a 35mm offset is going to push it outward rather inwards i have ran 19x8.5 stern st wheels in the past with a 45mm offet with no issues and also 18x8 with a 38mm offset the axis decade wheels the tires i will be running are 235-35-19s these are the wheels i have narrowed down to http://www.ebay.com/itm/110800314596...84.m1438.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/300642661017...84.m1438.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/150713778410...84.m1438.l2649 these are a great match but not much of a outer lip on them but they 19x8 40mm offset i could still use 235s on them with no issues http://www.ebay.com/itm/390375926586...84.m1438.l2649 these i like a lot but im worried abought the offset of 35mm this was my pearl svx with the same stern wheels 19x8.5s 45 mm offset i have rolled the fenders for the new wheel sizes already im assuming the lower the offset number the farther out the wheel sits ? http://www.1010tires.com/Wheeloffsetcalculator.asp im open to sugestions and which ones you like best, thanks every one =>

Re: help solar pick out some wheels and offset questions
I have to say that last one is an eye catcher. I like. I think an 8.5 rim with 35 offset may work but you may catch the inner liner on hard turns. If you have not already get the upgraded rear sway from nevin, lucky he has some ready now. That helped reduce the hard turns catching on my 18x8.5 34 offset rims.
If you dont go with those my next pick is #1, seems to be a deeper lip then #2 I like that. Last edited by 92 SVX; 12-30-2011 at 10:45 AM. |

Re: help solar pick out some wheels and offset questions
thanks for the input guys
i need to make a decesion here soon, i have a feeling going with the adr wheels with a 35mm offset is going to be pushing it too much i guess i should play it safe with the 40mm rs wheels or the 45mm sterns

I have been lucky I have not had any trouble with wheel bearings, Though being a taller and wider rim is probably helping keep the alignment of the wheel bearing. |

Re: help solar pick out some wheels and offset questions
This is what I am talking about on the rubbing.
This happened before I put on the heavier rear sway. and the inside This is again with 18x8.5 and 225/40/18's 34 offset |
