    Default Will VE SS rims fit VZ ute?

    Im looking at getting some VE SS rims for my VZ ute but think there might be some problems with wheel nuts etc. Can u wack them straight on or do you need to fk around? Anyone know of any other decent holden 18-19 inch rims that will fit the VZ without any hassle? (not VZ SS rims)

    pretty sure all VE rims need to machined out to fit anything pre VE.
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that

    you just need to take 2 to like 3 mm out of the center hole
    and it just slips on like a thumb in the bum

    Cheers for the response lads, any pictures would be sweet. So most tyre/rim places can machine rims? My utes on super lows so hopefully VE SS 19s wont create any problems.

    most tire shops will be able to organise the machining of the center hole for you? also recomend a set of bigger wheel nuts cause the vz 19mm ones are to small. you'll be looking at somethin like a 21mm tapered nut. which the tire shop should be able to sort out for you
