Wheel help with VY wagon exec

[Boosted2]

I have just purchased a 03 VY wagon exec and am wanting to get some 20s for it. The question i am asking is what model commodores will the wheels not fit from ?
I have been told anything of a VE wont fit but will wheels that fit a VZ,VT,VX ect fit my wagon ?

Dont want to get new wheels as its only my to work and back car and parks in dirt for now.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks Gavin. Gold coast.

Wheels from a VE will actually fit they just require a bit machined out of the centre hub of the wheel, I think its about 2-3mm due to different hub sizings, the VE wheels have a 14mm stud hole vs 12mm stud for VT-VZ.
Pretty much anything VT-VZ should go straight on no hassles, VE will need a small amount of machining.

The only other thing will be the wheel offsets, from memory VT-VZ 43mm, I think The VE wheel offset is the same as VT-VZ?

VB - VL = 43+

VN = 43+

VP = 43 + optional offset is 42 + or 31 + for V8 Exec sedan
VP Berlina = 26 +
VP ABS IRS = 26 +

VR Executive = 43 +
VR Executive wagon = 40 + or 43 +
VR Berlina sedan = 43 +
VR ABS IRS = 26 +

VS Exec wagon = 43 + or 37 +

VT Acclaim V6 = 26 + all other VTs are 43 +

VX all models are 43 +

VY Exec V6 = 43 +
VY SC V6 = 41 +
VY Exec wagon = 43 + or 41 + for the 5.7 L
VY2 = 43 +
VY2 SC V6 = 41 +

VZ Exec = 43 +
VZ Acclaim = 41 +

Also try to keep within 10mm for the wheel offset. Legally its either 12mm or 10mm to keep the offset legal and thats there for a reason...

The other thing to keep in mind is that the change in wheel size will affect your speedo plus a bit of fuel economy as well. On 20's your speedo could be up to 15-20km out ie, speedo says your doing 100kph when your actually doing 115-120kph!
