Hey guys ,

New to the site . I’ve got a vz ss ute which has been lowered by Previous owner.
I have 18s on it currently. But I want to put the 20” E3 gts wheels on the ute . Tyre size will be 245/30r20 on the new e3s.

The ute has FE2 suspension but apparently this is a problem due to the strut body??

See pictures attached at current height and wheels I wish to fit with tyre sizes above .

1. Will they fit with the FE2 suspension
2. Will I need to get guards rolled
3. Anything I’m missing please let me know.

Thanks and look forward to responses. And hopefully they fit

Should have no issues at that size. It will depend on what offset those current wheels are but if theyre not scrubbing now they shouldn't with the new wheels. FE2 won't mean squat for you, guard rolling you shouldn't need as the overall rolling diameter is no different to a stock 18" SS wheel. But even if they do need rolling thats not a big deal either.

Have a squizz on willtheyfit.com and plug in your specs, its a great tool to compare sizes.

Thanks sandman ,

Here’s a pic of the front an it’s clearance. I guess you won’t know until you try but want to make sure before purchase.

Fe2 is to do with the spring, not the strut.
