Expertise / experience re;: wheels swap

Anyone know if the following will work ? From what I have read on this forum, 38 offset might not be enough ??

17 x 7 enkei racing rims. +38 offset. 5 x 114.3 and 5 x 100 multi bolt pattern

Right bolt pattern...questionable offset

Yes. They are enkei shoguns and were offered in 2001-2002. They're also directional like the stock wheels. A perfect compliment for the SVX.

Re: Expertise / experience re: wheels swap

I love the Enkei Shoguns too! The only thing that would make them better would be for them be a single bolt pattern. I would happily put those ones on one of my cars though.
