Vxr8 19's

[badboyburt]

Going through parts in the garage and wondered what the going rate was for a set of vxr8 19s, need space in the garage as doors and wheels are getting in the way of man tools and workbenches.

£50 Ill take them

Alternately PM me what you are thinking

[badboyburt]

4/500 depends on condition.

I assume the rears would need tubbing on the old style chassis, although I'm sure VO03UTE got them on his ute??

Not directly. The VE wheel flange is smaller than the Monaro one, and I guess yours is the same as the Monaro? You'd need to pop them in a lathe and turn a couple of mm off them.

You mean the centre bore?

(yes same as the Ro IIRC)

Yes. VXR8 is only 66mm (IIRC).

MikeyB runs VXR8 wheels on his Monaro without tubbing.

they do look good when done and yes minimal work to rears

what size tyres?

[Kiwi1]

Alloys with tyres, or Alloys on there own ?

Condition is also key

[007 VXR]

Iirc, vxr8 wheels will fit a ute with very little issues?

265/30 - MPSS.

To heavy , will fit with centre bore machined out

In all honesty, I'd happily give up circa 20mm to save the cost of tubbing. Besides, for my weeny 400rwhp, 265 MPSS are more than sufficient. Besides, 265/30/19 MPSS tyres are actually 282mm wide, so I would guestimate about the same as other manufacturers' 275 wide tyres.
The whole point of me fitting VXR8 9.5 inch rears was to prove it can be done. Which I did
