Check out these bad boys:
Yeah, that's right! Rollin' Geolanders wrapped around some SWEET 'teens from Isuzu.Sorry, just had to put that up.
I'm with Bart; how come my VX doesn't get that clean. I saw that picture and it looks like the paint is liquid. Nice job!!

I just put those same wheels in 16" on my 91 Trooper. Be aware they have a pretty positive offset. Originally, I put 265/75s on the Trooper and I had rubbing on the frame at full lock. I took off the 265/75s (will be putting them on the VX) and put some 235/85s on the Trooper and I get no rubbing now.
They look classic and nice I think.

Yep that's the kind of look I was going for with these aluminum wheels...
Cooper Zeon LTZ 285-60-18 (31.5" diameter)
KMC Enduro Wheels 18x9 zero offset (I think)
Stock ride height etc. Front bumper needed a good trim and the front wheel liner needed a good trim in back and a BFH pounding but it was easy and looks fine.

Canadian VXer!
I was changing my wheels over from winter (31's) to summer (33's) and happened to have a stock size tire too. So I posted these pictures in case some of you are interested in a side by side comparison.
These are stock for a '99 245/70r16 then Gen Grabbers AT2 265/70r16 and GoodYear MT/R 33/12.5r15

There's no 'I' in denial.
After nearly a year of trying to decide which wheel/tire combo to go with, I settled on keeping the stock rims with Nitto Terra Grappler 285/60-18. For anyone else on the fence, this is by far the best thing I have done for my VX.
