Pics of aftermarket wheels - got any?

Hey guys,

I was hoping to see some examples of some aftermarket wheels on a SVX. I have a '92 Pearly White but any pics will do just to give me an idea of what looks nice. Also, please let me know the offset I need to be concerned with. Also, are they any recommended Internet wheel vendors that I should know of? I need to do this 'cause 3/4 of my rims are bent! Let's see some pics!

Thanks very much.

Ali

Look in peoples lockers Alia

Many of us have aftemarket wheels (I do) and have put pictures in their lockers.

Also check out alanscouse's locker. He took pictures of many of the SVX's with custom wheels at the 10th Anniversary meet.

nice look man ...keepin it JDM. I have no idea if theres a relationship to ALT, but I've never even heard of AZA and know they only make a limited number of wheels. Here's a close up of the Z-2:

Mike,

What size are those? Look like they may have more offset than mine.

If I go with the power upgrades I'd like, I may have to get another set of rims to fit a wider tire.

Mike at ECU says that a 255 / 35 will fit on the 18 X 8 rims, but needs a 49MM offset. Mine are only 40MM

Alia,

Attached is a picture of 17" white rims on my '92 pearly.
For contrast the photo shows the car sitting in front of Rosies' '94 pearly which has stock rims.
