Ok ok, I know that everyone hates these threads - but I have looked online, looked at wheel websites, and searched this forum. Right now I am not sure if I want to move down to 16"s or keep the 18"s. If I keep the 18"s I want them to fit the 245/60/18 tires that I currently have on. The two top contenders are the American Racing Black Fuel's and the American Racing Black Crush's. They are both available in many sizes (check http://www.wheelsforless.com/american_racing.htm for more info). Do either of these rims fit in 16" or 18"???

Both will, get them in 6/5.5 (139.7). NON GM and your good to go.

Check that center bore, they don't look big enough. You want at least 108mm.

They will fit, if you get the NON GM ones like JHarris said. Otherwise the center bore will be too small. The offset is what you need to look at with the AR rims, unless you don't care if the wheels and tires stick out a lot.

Get NON GM and your fine. Call AR. or the wesite and make sure first.

Thanks for the help! What offset should I be looking for since I don't want them to stick out? I have seen some people run 0 and some people run 20 mils. BTW - I have no lift or anything like that on my VX.

Hey there!

You have your titles mixed up, the fuel is on the bottom, and the crush is on the top. I have the fuel, 18" but in silver. KEEP your original lugg nuts though, the ones that come with them don't fit. I've been very happy with the rims. I've had them 2 years now, and they still look perfect. I hope this helps.
