wheels

I am looking at a set of rims that came off of a Toyota Camry. One website I looked at makes it look like they will fit on my Svx, however they are listed with like this: 5 -114 offset. I think he is saying that it is a 5x114 bolt pattern, but if it really has a -114 offset, will they fit? Please respond ASAP, or e-mail me at oneringer@earthlink.net. Thanks. Dave

That's 5x114.3. Correct for the SVX only if the offset is acceptable. Also inquire if they are hubcentric or lugcentric. (You may need adapter rings for them to fit properly).

yeah im pretty sure he means 5x114.3. Just FYI though -114 (if it exists) would be super bad for any subaru. You're definately goingt o want to check the offset on those wheels, I can almost certainly say they'll be too low of an offset.

There are a number of wheels with the correct bolt pattern, but as previously stated the offset needs to be at least close to make them suitable for this application. Take a look at Dayle's Motorsports site to see at least some of the suitable cross-overs. Of late there are some additional wheels, like the Nissan Murano, and I believe some of the Lexus OEMs that will fit. Wheel-bearing life can be an issue with anything not closely matching in 16" and I believe varying toward less + as they get larger though.

they have to be at least a +40mm offset to fit the Camry
..are they OE wheels or aftermarket wheels ?
Either way, they will fit.....you may have to get new lugs
though.
Which rims are they exactly ?

They were Fittipaldi's of some sort. Don't know the madel, but I lost the auction anyway. Thanks for the reply, though, it will make my searching that much easier.
