RX8 wheels

Does anyone have a photo of an SVX with RX-8 wheels? Also, will the 2009 RX-8 wheels fit the SVX?

Re: RX8 wheels

99% of RX-8's come with 18x8" wheels with a +50mm offset. So if the early model wheels fit, the '09 wheels will fit as well.

The '09 RX-8 R3 models comes with 19x8" wheels with a +47mm offset iirc.

Re: RX8 wheels

As you can see from Bill's post, the wheels fit just fine. They have a 50mm offset, and a centerbore of 67.1mm

Also, 2000ish outback center caps fit in them perfectly.

Re: RX8 wheels

They sure look perdy! Does anyone have experience with these wheels and Dayle's drop springs? My current wheel's offset was terrible with the drop springs and has destroyed my fender linings. Anyone with a picture of these wheels with the green svx? Dont own photoshop yet
