will ve wheels fit on a vs or are they different stud pattern i herd there bigger
you have to get wheels machined to fit vs so ive been told, and im also told ve studs are bigger.
im pretty sure they will fit (same stud pattern) but you do have to get them machined
thankshow much does it cost to get machined ?
You need to get the centre bore machined
$40-$70 per wheel

Also wrap them in 235 tires because any bigger will rubb on the strut tower.
i think from memory the centre of the ve rims are measure to 65mm diamater and pre ve run 68mm diamater hub flanges so u need to take 3mm off the wheel diamater for the ve rim to fit onto the pre ve car. you can do this easily your self at home, i've done it several times with a vernier, a die grinder and some sandpaper to give it a nice finish. Hope this helps..oh and yeah ve studs are bigger but wont affect the stud pattern bolting up at all.
heard of the search button? Been plenty of threads on this.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.
hey mate ive got 19' VE SSV rims on my 98 VS ute. me and my dad got an aluminium bure and bored out the centre of the rims about 2-3mm. very simple only took about half an hour. and also i read something above about only being able to fit 235 tyres on, false. i have 245s on mine the only thing that rubs is the outside of the front wheels when i go to fast on full lock but the inside clears well. i cant really tell you much about the VE studs being bigger because i used the original studs that came on the car (as i bought the VE SSV mags without any studs or locknuts) and all fitted nicely.
