    i would say no. it comes down to adr rulling's etc you can just change the tyers etc if there the same diameter

    rx7 PCD is 5x114.3, commodore is 5x120. thats too much difference to just "drill" it out.

    sell them and buy some commodore pattern FR's

    A much bigger question is when are you fixing the caps lock on your keyboard?

    THE FIRST STEP IS TO STOP SCREAMING.

    Maybe you should also mention the size of the wheels across (17's? 18's?).

    If you are that desperate to do it, take it them to a wheel shop and see what they have to say. It you want to put VE rims on anything before, you need to have the center machined, the same probably applys here for the stud pattern and the centre (as you havn't mentioned if the centre fits).

    Or you could do that because it's the sure way to do it.

    And just out of curiosity, what do you have on the HSV at the moment, because 225 sounds a bit narrow.

    No one in there right mind would swap the doritos for FR19's LOL, FR19s are worth about the $3000 mark arent they?
    The doritos are not worth any where near that. Oh and just leave the Doritos on, they look the best
