    Camber wear has nothing to do with the size of the wheels, rather the amount of camber the car has. 20" Wheels with the correct offset and reasonable width will fit on a VT with 'lows' .. Remember the only legal tyre size, with the closest rolling diameter to stock is 245/30R20

    VT's on anything lower the lows pull camber, the lower it is the worse it gets


    If it isnt tuckin, it must be suckin

    a camber kit will help with it but not stop it, only way to completely remove camber though is to a fit a VXII-VZ diff cradle


    If it isnt tuckin, it must be suckin

    use the search every1 keeps asking this question and the answer is yes 20 with 245/30R20 or 235/35R20 bodykit doesn't affect your wheels in any way at all

    i have 20's with 235/35 R20.. is this legal for my car? its a vX executive.

    and yes, definalty invest in a camber kit mate, specially if you have 20's and super lows haha, it will cost you more with out it, even though it looks tuff as ####

    4 point camber kit from gsl rally sport int he forums above, to easy

    A camber kit will help, but it won't solve it. My VXII has less then a degree of neg camber on SSL's.

    And not all 245/30 are legal, you need a load rating of 93 as well.


    If it isnt tuckin, it must be suckin

    can be higher. the idea of a load rating is if the car can carry 1 tonne the tyres need to cope with the load also so if yuo run a lower rated tyre may may fail and blow out.

    rims also have a load rating but there not an issue on Commodore but become an issue on the lolux sence and crewmans

    it has to be the number you need or higher otherwise it is illegal for your car, i usually just ask the tyre joint for the load rating but im sure it would be on the tyre aswell?
    Going where no late model stato/caprice has gone before.... GAME ON!!

    20s will fit. I have 20s on ssl and 4 point camber kit. Doing the diff cradle will do wonders if your car is lowered. So go the 20s.
