Increasing My Size!!

Under the top picture center caps is about 2-3inches of space.

Same thing for the stock rims. And the lug pattern and center bore dimensions are very common, I know we share the same measurements as Chevy/GMC pickups and SUVs. Shouldn't be hard to find what you want at all.

The second photo is a wheel I sell.. Its an SSC style 74. The caps are actually about 3 inches deep but the face of the wheel is thick. So where the wheel touches the hub us an inch or two behind the face. The wheels on my vx are like this as well.. even more so.. I have about a 3-4 inch space.. I will try to take a photo if I can

Just find a wheel you like with the bolt pattern and bore and buy it. You can make it work.

That's what I'd like to think. But, even though NTB shows several wheels to fit, they called HQ for me last week and were told NO wheels fit the VX from NTB.

NTB referred me to KCTrends -- a leader in custom wheel-fitment for our city. That's ALL they do. They looked up pics of the stock VX/wheel on the net and said only a few wheels (out of thousands they list) would work. And, that it would require a certain brand that sells a cap spacer.

People now-a-days don't know their butt from a hole in the ground! You probably wouldn't be surprised at some of the other web inquiries I've made about wheel-fitment for a VX. If I could see their face while they replied, they are probably running around like chickens with their heads cut-off!

The wheels I'm really leaning toward, have a 110mm center hole -- slightly larger than the 108mm stock wheel. I hope that won't A) cause run-out vibration issues or B) present a problem trying to find a center cap to work -- if the stock cap isn't deep enough. Welding?

LOL

No worries on the vibrating from a large center bore. My wheel centers are much larger than the hubs.. No problems other than being a royal pain to get lug nuts started. But once one is tight. The wheel centers and the rest are easy

Just about all wheels are lug centric nowadays. As long as the center bore clears the hub, the lug nuts will center the wheel and not vibrate.

As far as modifying the hub cap - entirely doable. I had AR rims on my Samurai years ago & didn't like how far out the hub caps came. A buddy of mine cut an inch out and welded them with no ill effects.

Usually that means the VehiCROSS model doesn't show up in their computer, so to save themselves the work of actually doing research, they just discourage you from buying anything altogether. Stupid, but sadly very common it seems.

Yeah just say Nissan/Toyota truck rims.
