fit a stock csvt? I know ive seen the reg fsvt wheels work, just checking the euros. Is there anywhere to find them cheaper than $125 each? thanks
 
They fit. Tons of people on here run them.

Most places sell them for around the same price. I don't think I've seen lower than $110 a wheel. You may find lower, but the shipping might be jacked up to make up for it.
 
Long time upgrade here in the CEG. The offset has the wheels setting in a "tad" but its just that, a "tad" and yes a "tad" is about a hundred million miles in space terms:laugh: (does anyone know what movie that line is from:confused:)
 
In a tad? If they are 1/2 inch wider (17x7 vs. 16x6.5), and have the same offset (49mm), then the face of the wheel will be 1/4 inch farther OUT than stock.
 
I have never heard they sit inward or actually seen these on a csvt....I just picked up some the eaps. How far is just a tad? Imo even fsvts were too far in so if these sit any farther in than that I am definitely going to want spacers.
 
i need a similar question answered lol do the euros fit with baer brakes behind them on an svt lol
 
I need similar confirmed, because Im wanting to put Cobra Calipers on mine. From what I read over on on FocalJet the FOCUS BBK dont work with their wheels..... but I dont know how that compares to our setups.

hey there is a guy on here slowhatch that has the baer bbk on his svt with the euros and he said there were no issues with fitment at all.
 
I did a search on here as well and cam up with people having issues with the FSVT 5 spokes. They used spacers to resolve.

Do you have confirmation in a PM or thread you can post, just to ease my mind?

I saw that you have the baer kit on your svt and are running the euro focus wheels. I have an opportunity to pick up a set of euros, and I also have a baer kit. I was just curious on the fitment. Did they clear the calipers ok or did you need spacers?

That ease your mind enough lol I don't tend to make stuff up off the top of my head:laugh:
 
Yes, yes it does. Sorry, some people spew garbage. As a true Ceg'r I knew you could back your claims. Some ruin it for others.

BTW- I PM'd him too. lol He got back to me saying they fit fine with 1/8- 1/4" clearance.
