Wheel Fitment

Can anyone tell me the specs for the SVX wheel (i.e bolt pattern, offset, and etc) I am looking to buy some aftermarket wheels but I need this to determine which ones fit properly and which ones don't. Thanks

16 X 7.5 with 55 mm offset. Bolt pattern is 5 X 114.3mm A.K.A. 5 on 4.5". Try to find some with as much offset as you can, like 42+. I run a 46mm offset, 7" width and the outside edge is pretty much the same as stock. If you go too wide or too little offset, the back outsides will rub. 38mm offset, 7.5" width seems to be about the borderline.

Lower offsets can also affect stability during braking and acceleration. Even though +38 mm will work, the closer you are to the stock 55 mm offset, the better if you are looking to improve handling.
