But I'm not sure about the back spacing. They are 17x7. They have the same bolt pattern but I'm not sure about backspacing. They are SVT Focus wheels.

4 - lug, 108MM bolt circle, 5.94" backspacing. 17 x 7

irrational, maybe

PJM99 · 07-20-2004, 07:59 AM

no brand loyalty here as you can tell, but I just like them because I want something a little different.

Or how does that work? ET37 is about right for out cars, athat would be 37mm, right? Well, 5.94' = about 150mm...confused...

Kent is the guy that can track down used speedlines and then has a service that does an incredible job of refinishing them. Notice in the photo you have posted (that's my car BTW) that the lip has been polished down to the base aluminum and then clear coated. Much better than the original way the speedlines were configured.

They're a good looking wheel. They're a nice look on a coupe GT/4k, no question. But have you ever weighed them? Heavy. Soft. Every set I've ever had has had slow leaks at the rim. And never mind the clear coat peeling off. You can have mine if I find something else, I'm looking for a set of these for my new 90q20v:
