Hey i own a VP SS and got offered some 20 inch wheels and tyres. My question is will they fit without rubbing?? It has standard front FE2 and King SSSL in back. I will be buying a camber kit.
Thanks...
You will need to fit VT front struts as the spring platform is too low on VN/VP for 20's.

i had 20s on my vp it was on ssl all way round with irs
It's not as simple as "will 20's rub?". Some will, some won't. Not every 20 inch wheel will have the same offset (I don't know what kind of offsets will fit).
As said before, your biggest problem on the front will be the struts. A friend of mine has SV5000's on his VP Calais and they scrubbed at the rear when he had a heavy load in the back (although his car is ridiculously low, you are probably going to have problems too running those springs). He got round this by "massaging" the inner arches with a rubber mallet as they apparently did on some HSV's or something.

the spring height has nothing to do with rubbing issues the spring seats on the struts remain the same height the only rub u might have would be the inner guard or when on full lock depending on ride height. as for the rear u will need a camber kit and possibly massaging of the inner guards. the ideal offset u want would +35 and tyre size would be 225/35/20 i have this on the front and 245/30/20 on the rear with ultra lows in the front and barinas in the rear with shortened shockers and i can still carry a full car with minimal issues good luck
