Question More Questions (Wheels and Suspension)

-Wheels-
What wheels will fit on the SVX? Will any of the older model OEM Subaru Wheels fit? Say like 1st Generation 2.5 RS Wheels or even WRX Wheels?

-Suspension-
From the reading I've done it seems everyone is only using stock suspension or they have upgraded to Koni's (I think that's how you spell it)? Why? Is there any way to adapt STi or WRX struts and springs to the SVX? What about coilovers?

Thanx again in advance!

Hello and welcome to the site. This place is packed with many, many threads full of valuable information. The Search button is an awesome tool that nobody here should neglect.

Wheels are covered often: on the SVX the bolt pattern is 5x114.3 (5x4.5), and a high offset (stock is +55).

As for Konis, they are not necessary to enjoy your ride but many members have them installed and love the firm ride they get. I'll let someone more technical cover coilovers and STi/WRX adapting.

Again, welcome!

Try tirerack.com for brakes, tires, and rims. They are reasonable and the shipping is fast.
