    PS. Welcome to the forum
    185? or do you mean 285?

    CROTCHROCKET--- That's gotta be a typo. A "185" series on a VX would look like a skinny wagon-wheel from the old west. Remember, our OEM stock tires are "245" series. Anything narrower than a "245" series would look hideous.

    Hands down 285/60-18 Nitto Terra Grappler is the best tire for the stock rim, and no lifting needed. Look at the 1st pages of my gallery as mine came from the place I bought it with originally with these on there already
