Im looking at gettin some 20s for the vk and wanted to know if an 8.5 inch wide rims will fit. Also lookin at ultra low springs all round anyone run similar or know if it will all fit without rubbing
Cheers

You will have to get the right offset wheels. You will have too roll all your gaurds. I doubt they will fit up front with that size tyre. I got 20" Simmons on my vk but they are only 245's and I run k sport coil overs back and front it's on it guts the wheels are tucked and they only scrub at full lock in reverse.

I had 20x8.5" rims with 225 tyres under one of me wagons. The front I had to move the spring seat up 5-10mm, but apart from that they fitted no probs. Didn't have gaurds rolled and didn't have an adjustable panhard rod.

Wagon looks good mate what springs you running in it
21sly whats the offset on the rims you have

pretty sure they are +45 but mine may be a little different due to my setup with coil overs. danny did you have any scrubbing issues up front with normal shocks or did you have coil overs. I am about to do some rear tub mods just going to square them off a bit to get a bit more rubber in there pretty simple job if you can weld and use a grinder. Hope to get 285's under the rear then. Dont really wanna go down the 4 link mini tub road shit gets expensive then.

I think they the equivalent to normal lows all round, King Springs.

Yeah with the normal strut assembly the tyres scrubber on the inside. Same thing happened with the 19's on it b4 the 20's but they were only on for a burnout comp and were bald anyway, and we didn't know they scrubbed till they come off. The 20's had new tread and scrubbed bad. We could still idle it up the road a bit but scrubbing enuf to start smoking lol. Me little bro done the work on them, he grinded off the weld holding the spring seat to the upright bit, then moved it up 10mm and rewelded it. Didn't have to go 10mm (around 5mm would of been fine) but decided to go a bit extra just incase. Also put ultra or super lows (can't remember which) in the front at the same time, coz with the lifted spring seat it would of sat higher.

Yeah I've been sussing out how to cut away the inner edge under the rear. I think I'll end up doing it coz I wanna shorten a diff a fraction to sit the wheels in a bit more so when we go back out on the pad it doesn't kill the paint....prolly won't happen for a while tho.
