The answer would be no(That I know of :confused: ). wouldn't be cheaper to look at VT setup? Take a pic of the rim because it's the frist time i heard of this.

Go the VT setup. Then you will get the corect hubs so they sit right.
Look in the online shop or email Tony [email protected]

Another option is to replace your caps with an early type cap possibly.

I can sell you a VT upgrade kit but it may not make any difference to the caps at all. This kit is $470

The other option is to convert your VP to a VR / VS front end, the only drama is the top hat needs to be modified with a new bearing welded in to take the bigger struts. This option will be around $900.

Cheers

VT SS 5.7L Commodore.
You sure these are a good brand of wheels?
Never heard of that sort of problem before. Unless these tyres were specially made for VR/VS hubs I can't see them not fitting on any other commodore.

Cheers,
Jim :cool:

I ran into this problem with my other car.... a vp with vt brake conversion and the vs factory mag wheels just don't fit because of the hub so I couldn't fit them.
