    You don't need spacers to put VE wheels on pre VE, you need to get them machined as the pre VE hubs are slightly larger diameter than VE. Don't know cost, maybe $20-$30 per rim?

    Not all wheels can be machined to suit VT-VZ.Due to the narrow space between stud holes and the hub centre.

    If you want to know what they will look like on your car, get a picture of them and a picture of your car and post in the photoshop request thread. You will have a better success rate if the wheels are on the same angle as the shot of your car.
