    VZ ute wheels

    everything depends on height, mine came with 20s on SSL King springs and guards were rooled and one of the rear tyres rubbed. 18x 8x245 is stock for fronts, 9s will be close as there is not much clearence on the front, stick with 8s if you can. Backs have lots of room (again depending on height)...

    Thanks for all the help guys, I guess I will start by getting my other key and see how it goes, also check the battery as it did sound a little weak one time.

    Deep dish wheels

    But even my current wheels which are 8.5" +24 fit fine with the guards rolled. Thanks so +25 work OK on a VZ with rolled guards? What size tires?

    Deep dish wheels

    I was considering cutting the existing guards up to the inner tubs, then fixing some kind of kit guards that came out and back down. But if it is not legal then I am not going to go down that path.

    Deep dish wheels

    I want to fit 8" fronts and 10" wide rears, but the wheels I like don't have + offsets (ET) It had 10" wide when I bought it and they fit even when it was super low and they were 20" rims, but they had the correct ET Now I have new king springs (raised as high as it will go) and yes guards are...

    Deep dish wheels

    All the wheels I like will not fit because of the +45 offset Is there a kit to flair the guards to take wider wheels with 0 offset? and are added guard flairs legal in Qld.? Thanks in advance C-

    Corvette/Camaro/Chevy wheels on commodore?

    I'm not expert, and I am still trying to understand this...The wheel maker told me that the correct wheel for the correct car still has clearance which makes sense otherwise it would not fit on and off unless the center was tapered? Seems like with wobble nuts correcting for the location on...

    VU Ute Rear Springs

    I was pretty impressed with mine when I carried a big load of heavy sand and turf to the tip...My opinion a ute should be able to handle the load it is designed to take.

    Corvette/Camaro/Chevy wheels on commodore?

    Chevy 5x120.65 vs Holden 5x120 that's only .65 of a mm... His point was there would be that much clearance on a Holden wheel at the center hub anyway, if there was not any clearance you would never get any wheel on or off. I realize wheels are high-speed dangerous things, but there is a...

    just put new King Springs to suit your ride height, they are stronger and will help with load carrying

    Corvette/Camaro/Chevy wheels on commodore?

    I was told by BCI wheels where they make them, that everything has clearance, and if you use "wobble nuts" you can run Chevy 120.65 wheels if tightened slowly in the correct sequence. he also said the center bore has clearance, so the studs do all the work.
