    I think we've got like a 110mm bore, so that's going to be your biggest stumbling block. If you decide to go with anything smaller you need to figure in the cost of a machine shop enlarging the hole. Just a little bit you can do yourself, like the .5mm I mentioned earlier. Beyond that and you're asking for spontaneous wheel failure if the material can be removed at all.

    Try and make conversation with a Titan/Armada owner and ask to trial fit one of their wheels. That's what I did. Just struck up a conversation and offered a guy $5 to let him watch me pull one of his front wheels off and try it on my VX. After it was all said and done he even declined the $5 and I knew that I liked the Frontier wheels better. Got an entire set of 4, brand new, delivered for less than $200 thanks to eBay (note the center sizes):

    Stock VX wheel bore is just shy of 100mm, stock hubs measure just a fraction smaller than that and even putting the stock front wheels back on is difficult sometimes neither is 110 - measured with digital calipers last nite.

    For what's it's worth.

    We do know that the CB for the VX is 108.

    Goggling gets these CB numbers since the Armada & Titan are relatively late model vehicles one would think they would not be suspect but they appear to be small too me.

    I can tell you for sure that the Frontier wheels are TIGHT. A couple passes with the sanding durm on the inside of the center bore and they fit fine, but the inside portion of the rim contacts the upper A-arm and needs to relieved around the perimeter about 2-3mm. Of course, if you're in a hurry the A-arm will do this for you.

    Those look awesome!
    15s eh?
    Those might become my poor man's tuner wheels shortly.
    Thanks for the tip!
