So they slipped nicely over the studs, but the stub was too big for the wheel centre to slide over? Odd... Any chance of us seeing pics of the two cars with front wheels off?

Wat sorta mags r they stock or aftermarkets? has the VN been converted with the VT brakes at all? if so the hubs would have been changed 2 suit VT rims so they wont fit on the VN/VP

their after market mags, and no its not set up for VT brakes...to look at both cars with no tyre on them, they look the same to me ..but for some reason no go
Thats crap. My mags fitted just fine before and after my Vt brake upgrade. And my rims are Vy Clubsport R8's. Genuine ones too.
And my Vp SS rims fitted my Vl just fine.
Just out of curiosity, do the mags you are trying to fit have centre caps on them?

i dont have a camera to take pics...but i have a DVD video camera..is it possible to do a film clip of it all and post that ? no SD card to take pics on it

If you have the cable to connect the camera to the PC, you should be able to take a still off the video. I can with mine.
Does the VP have finned calipers and what size are the rims off the VN?

never fear... i got them on turns out the clip that holds the center cap on wasnt in right and that was stopping it going over the bearing cap..
thank you everyone that tried to help me out
Nice work. Glad it all worked out for you.
Simple things first!
