Hey guys,
Any rim suggestions for my vx s pack, I want something nicer than the standard rims but nothing over the top. What do you all think?

Thanks

Depends on car colour, there is a website you can use, select the car and colour and try a few. Stick with 17" unless you want a harsher ride with 18 or above, also if you have car insurance see how much bigger u can go all they wont cover u in a crash, usually its 2" from standard.

Check you tyre placard for your "recommended Wheel/Tyre size",
Its usually located either attached to the inside of the glovebox some cars, or on the driver side Door, or Door Pillar.

Can we have a look see at the car to see what might be suitable and what kind of rim diameter are you wanting to go.

That's 15 year old stuff...As long as it has the same rolling radius as factory fitament and the loa I'd go no more than a 16"rimd rating of the tyre is identical or greater, you are fine.

To put in a nutshell, he can fit 22" rims if it tickles his fantasy.

Personally, I'd go no more than a 16" rim for comfort

How about theses 16'' Statesmen rims, we have a one down from standard suspension and these full up the wheel arch beautifully and even better yet with the higher wall the ride is perfect even in outback Queensland.
