    Default 19 inches - ooooh baby!

    What will be required to mount 19inch HSV Senator Signature rims on my VK?

    I imagine I will have to roll the inner gaurds?

    Will they fit under the car with "low" springs?

    Thanks

    Drew

    We put my 18's under PEAKN6 which has lows in it and that scrubbed a bit. The gaurds aren't rolled tho, so once they are it shouldn't scrape. Also an adjustable pan hard rod would make it better as well. 19's shouldn't be to different, as normally the bigger the rim, the smaller the tyre so u should be able to put them on without to much hassle depending on how wide they are. My 18's on the back are 245, so getting a 235's would be a bit better.

    Different laws in NZ. Going by how lenient that are with everything else, he could have 24s if they could physically fit

    on the law side of things, if im not mistaken, it says you can legally fit rims 1"(one inch) larger than the largest factory fitted on all models. therefore since HSV fits 20" ers you can go up to 21" on any VE etc etc for each of the models.
    so a VH can legally go to 17" since brock models came with 16"s max......i'm pretty sure.....
