    Default 19" SSV Rims on VS Commodore NSW

    Hi i want to put VE SSV Rims on my 97 VS Commodore.
    After reading the regulations for NSW, i cant put any bigger than 17" without a certificate and blue slip. I was just wondering if anyone has done this, and how hard was it to get the certificate, and what other steps were involved in this process.
    Thanks for any help.

    Reading this document in regards to replacement wheels. http://www.rta.nsw.gov.au/registrati...vsi09_rev4.pdf
    At the bottom of page 2 it states "The outside diameter of the wheel and tyre combination must be no more than 15mm over the largest diameter
    wheel and tyre combination specified for the vehicle"
    .
    Then goes on to say "Wheels that exceed the diameter and width limits for minor wheel changes must be assessed by a signatory. If the
    signatory finds that the wheels are safe for your vehicle, you will be issued with an engineering certificate.
    The vehicle owner must notify the RTA so that registration records can be updated. This is done by obtaining an
    “Adjustment of Records” and a “blue slip” from an Authorised Unregistered Vehicle Inspection Station (AUVIS)."

    Sorry after reading through it again, i realized i got confused, thinking of rim size not rim & tire size. after a bit more research i found i can put 225/35 tires on the 19" rim and it is 15mm bigger than the stock rim & tire size, which should be legal. If anyone else is looking at putting bigger wheels on, use this to make sure the overall diameter is no more than 0.6 inches or 15mm bigger than the largest size on your tire placard
