whats the loading that a tyre for the VX should meet..I have seen on some tire/wheel sites that 108 is stated, but what is the mininmum OEM spec for the load rating..as sometimes manaufactures will also fit slightly higher but the cars tire placard states a 'minimum'...sorry car still at the yard otherwise I'd check the placard myself..the tires for my 20s are rated at 106..that is my concern..did a search some threads talk about 89 rating for the VX ..thats low !! [ie passenger tire level]..

Thanks

that's according to the tire placard attached to my vehicle, would seem low in view of cars weight ..but hey it certainly makes it easy fit up with tires..

G'day DDU,
Again, just thinkin out loud...from what I can see in the pics of the wheels you're looking at, the centerbore looks a little small. Can you get dimension from their site & post?

Gotta be 108mm at the very least and even that can be tight but that is the measurement of the stock rims.

the wheels don't fit...their offset was supposed to be 30 was only actaully 20..so they stuck out the sides of the guards on the back..and well the fronts the centre bore was wide enough 110mm..but not deep enough it needs at least 75 - 80 mm clearance in depth as well ..bugger..anyway found another wheel in 20s, still 9" wide but with 30mm offset..and centre bore is wide enough and is open enough it looks to accomodate the front hubs, hopefully will have a dry run fitment on Sat if wheel supplier pulls digit out, otherwise next Mon/Tues..

Car is now painted, one or two minor floors but overall the colour certainly looks good on the car..[not jet black more metal flake carcoal slate..]will take pics when i get the 20s on..so next week its lined up for alarm, roof, tint etc..need to do something with exhaust too, needs twin chrome pipes and may be a better muffler to help it breath..but not loud..

..for those of you looking over my shoulder.. see my other thread on passengers door creaking...thats really annoying, the door creaks and its window's has a classic example of the stuffed regulator/severe binding..its pushes straight out of its track as the glass lifts out of the door lurching forward..window lock for now !!..
