    Default VS 19'' rim question..

    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking at getting a VY S-Pack and am looking to get some 19'' rims.

    Can someone tell me if 19" x 8" HSV Vy Signature Senator Wheels with 245 x 35 maxx sports
    directional low profile tyres will fit a VS S-Pack with no issues? I have a set of these lined up and if
    there is no problem, i'll buy them.

    This is with standard suspension. I looked over the FAQ but couldn't find anything
    exactly answering what I was looking for.

    Thanks in advance.

    I suggest you lower it as your car will look like a 4WD with them. OT yes they will fit.

    Hey I've got 245/35 tyres on mine (sedan) but I wouldn't have thought the set up an a ute would be any different

    no joker i just dont feel the need to prove a point to a young boy like your self whos still wet behind the ears, and you asking for pics when ever anyone says about putting large wheels on a vr/vs is getting rather pathetic.

    The pic above was posted awhile ago to put an end to your constant whinging "dont belive you put a pic up blah blah blah" the pics there plain as day a VS senator with 265's. end of.

    Keep going m8, your good at getting fired up, that pic you showed last time didn't prove anything and it still doesn't. Until you prove otherwise its my opinion against yours, no need to get all hot headed about it m8, im just not going to believe you haven't scrubbed the inner guard when i have 235's and a m8 with 245's that have scrubbed at one time or another.
