Will 15" Outback wheels work on SVX?
Hi All, I know that this is backwards to the norm of putting bigger wheels on but I would like to get some use out of the all season tires I bought for My 98 Outback shortly before it died, and save the winter tires that are on the SVX I just bought for winter, at no cost if possible. I know that there could be clearance issues, just thought i would ask before trying them to see if anybody here knew offhand if it would work.

Yup. Pretty much every other Subaru has 5x100. SVX and later STI's have 5x114.3
