Do you guys know if 17x8 with +35 offset will fit? I'd be putting 225/45/R17 rubber on them...

I tried 17x8 with a +30 Offset (350Z wheels) and 235/45/17 tires and had fender rub in the back, but only by a couple mm. Front never came close to rubbing but was also not lowered. Have since gone with 17x8 with +45 Offset with no issues.

I thought most German cars use 120mm bolt circle? (if so, then no)

Even if they use a compatible bolt pattern, they're staggered width, which will screw up your AWD. Not recommended.

Also, it's awesome that you have a Black Mesa parking permit

well it was just a thought, I've liked this particular style of amg wheel for awhile, but the engine comes first now.

I was going to get an aperture science pass, but valve was sold out

in any event, I do have these lying around, they came with the car, i did a test fit, they worked fine, just the lugs were the wrong style, i'll look up the sizing again, and if anyone wants them, just pay shipping and they're yours.

I know in todays society is strange, but I dont have a facebook account, it wont let me look at those pics without. Could you put them in a image hosting, such as imageshack or photobucket?

sure

the tires on them are shot, and I don't remember the exact size diameter, but the lug pattern most definitely fits the svx, as I have test fitted one. it fit, but the lugs were svx oem, so they don't fit the lug holes.

Omg I never knew about those. Ordering one of the black mesa ones now. Will go great with the crowbar I keep in the trunk in case of zombies.

That's excellent!

I like that you have that listed in your sig

3.3H6 · #**372** 03-25-2011, 08:25 PM

the tires on them read p225/60R16

I measured, they are not staggered.

I looked it up and it says those ↓ wheels have a 35 offset, will that offset work, or is it too small.

Edit: The offset is 40 not 35 so it should work.

well they fit on my car when I put them on, I just couldn't use the svx lug nuts on them.

I just posted the start of a pdf document that has the details of wheels with a picture of it. It is located in the How-To Documents under Wheels. Take a look at it and if it is something that would help, I will continue it and add as many as I can. If it isn't something that will be of use, I will stop and not waste my time.
