Hey you got any side on pics with those rims? Friend of mine is thinking about getting them for his VP. How much are they worth? He is gonna pay $1000 for all four with tyres. They are 20" as well right?

i had 20s on my vr stato and had no problem with rubbing.but the front wasnt lowered at the time.and yes it takes off much slower with 20's i found.only thing i can think off with the difference between vr and vs is that vs have clear front lamps vr have orange,same as side indicators.and different rear garnishes.vs have the better rear garnish.

You should be fine running 245's in the rear provided you have the right offset. I have 225's on my VQ atm but will be getting 245's once tyres need replacing as 225's on the rear looks tiny!
As for fronts, VQ runs 20's with a 225/30 with the perfect offset, don't have guards rolled and it doesn't touch anywhere on full lock!
What profile are the fronts on your rims? 225/35 may be a stretch unless your offset is smack bang perfect.
Since you already have the rims, you're best just to fit them up and see for yourself how much inner and outer clearance they have, you should easily be able to tell if you will have rubbing issues.
The only problem i have with being so low is the rear camber, wish there was a proper fix for it
AND....those tri-spokes look perfect on that VS!
