    PS - you could always go for these wheels (what I wound up getting):

    http://www.aewheel.com/wheels_detail.cfm?id=39

    They would look hot in a 20x8.5 chrome - go for the +20 offset and they should sit about flush with the fenders. And they're not so pricey, either!

    I got the 18" polished aluminum witha +2 offset - they stick out a little and have a bulldog stance. A little different look, but they still look great!

    PPS - you should NOT get the 295/50/20 tires. Those have a 31.6" diameter, and would require MAD trimming, and possibly even a lift. You should go instead for a 295/45/20, which would have a 30.5" diameter - slightly bigger than stock, but won't require so much trimming. They would work well with the AE wheels I mentioned above.

    Thanks for the info. guys.I checked out Zinik's website and they offer the wheel with two choices of center bore,108 and 78.Of those two I'm not sure which of these are the center bore on the Zinik's that are currently on my Tahoe,which is 4WD.Well,I was hoping I would be able to remove them from my Tahoe and keep them to put on a VX,but I think I'll just sell my Tahoe with the Zinik's as I would feel more comfortable purchasing a set of wheels that will definitely fit a VX.Thanks again for your help.
    Heres the Zinik's on my Tahoe.

    Well it seems from reading that link that was posted,the VX is a 110 bore,so if my wheels are 108 center bore,they are not going to fit.Thanks everyone for your help,I appreciate it.

    The bore of the stock VX wheels is just under 108.

    108 will fit the VX hubs in diameter - actual diameter of the hubs is under 100mm, but remember that the hubs protrude FAR from the mounting face.

    Thanks for all the helpful info. but as of now I've decided to just sell the Tahoe with the Zinik's,as I might be able to sell it for a little bit more money.When I get a VX,I'll just purchase a wheel and tire combo that is already known to work on the VX's.
