    Not sure that they suit that VE but im not sure what else they will suit, you'll have to put them on or get someone to photochop them

    Thats funny
    some nice wheels there, a bit sick of the chromies, its getting a bit dated now and they aren't exactlt a classy wheel that will look good in a few years, but thats just my opinion.
    Hannibalk1ing i'm just getting a photo of a VT clubby with them on, give you a different view of them

    in what state? i know in vic you can go 15mm bigger than the overall diameter of the largest wheel/tyre set up for that series, so in ur case it would be 15mm bigger than whatever the biiggest (clubby, gts or whatever it is) stock wheel is.
