Maybe I'll get some M3's for the SVX and then just sell my WRX rims w/ the Blizzacks on 'em, since swapping the Blizzacks onto the stock SVX rims means running a pretty narrow tire on a 7.5" rim.

Anyone interested? Stock 16"x6.5" WRX wheels (minor rash on one of 'em) with stock WRX sized (205/55/16 IIRC) Blizzack LM-22's, $600 OBO. Tires have 2.5 winters on 'em, plenty of tread!

Well, I checked into M3's for the SVX, and wouldn't you know it, they don't make 'em in the stock SVX size (225/50-16)! The closest size in M3's is a 215/55-16, and those will cause my speedo to read low, as well as cost me $113/tire. The only size in M3's that match the OEM revs/mile are the 205/55-16's which are exactly the size Blizzacks I already have for the WRX.
So, instead of paying money for wider snowtires that don't match the OEM overall diameter, I'm just going to swap the Blizzies onto the SVX rims and be done w/ it.
So, all I'm gonna have for sale are some OEM WRX rims sans tires... any one interested in them?
