The numbers seem to indicate it will fit. Hub rings may need to be used though.

You'll need hubcentric rings, as the SVX hubs are 56.1 mm. You'll also want to check the distance from the rim's mounting face to the rear of the spokes to make sure the brake calipers don't hit the inner surface of the spokes - you'll need the back of the spokes to bow outward at least 5/8" until they're at least 6 5/8 inches out from the center of the hub.

thanks much. I'll email enkei, hopefully they'll respond..

Where the heck do I get a "hubcentric ring"? I assume it's something like a sleeve that fits over the hub to help center the wheel?

Enkei might just supply them with the rims, if you ask for them up front. Otherwise, check Ebay.
