green.....
i have 17" Enkei RS6 wheels. i have gotten nothing but compliments on them. they performed great at the track and the overall fit and feel has been great. no complaints from me at all. mine are 38mm/7.5" and they hold my 225/45 Bridgestone Potenzas. what is really funny is that i almost bought those rims but i decided to go with six spokes instead of five.

Woah....weird
I was thinking the exact same thing...Enkei Shoguns would look great on the SVX. I was turned off to them when I discovered I didn't even have the option of an 18" wheel, but they do look good. I like how they're similar to the stock rims, just bigger diameter and thinner spokes. Anyway, I'd go with them just because they're more affordable than some rims, and they should look good.

Ummm....
Stock. I don't currently have the funds for rims. I gotta pay huge tuition for school. Thankfully I have a job that allows me to do that without taking out student loans. If school weren't an issue, I would have rims, and probably be all over the K-staff or Stevebsy's bumper. Plus a new paint job. So, I'm trying to save for some Motegi M8's, or, I still like the shoguns, but I think I wanna do 18"

I saw these rims at my local Subaru dealer in nthe parts/accessories department . They are really sweet looking, an updated version of our slanted 5 spoke. I just wish they were directional. I don't like the way they look when the spokes are facing backward on the passenger side. I am a stickler for symmetry...

Nice lines to the wheel, but way too busy in the center with all of the holes and allen bolts and center logos.
However, I think it would look great to update the original look with a custom center cap...

I have Enkei Inazuma
They are 17" X 7". http://www.arandastires.com/EnkeiRims.htm
They have less offset, but the narrower width helps to compensate for that. I love them and have gotten a lot of compliments. BTW: The Legacy H-6 models have Enkei wheels as stock.
