I'm with these guys. As common as the older 19" VX/VY HSV wheels are becoming, I think they're a much nicer design than the VE style rims. Not sure what the wheel designers were thinking with the VE, but 20" VY Senator Signature rims would look awesome riding up under the guards!

HA try and get a price on a new set of these wheels and you will soon find that for the money they ain't worth all the hassle. Besides you will possibly have issues with scrubbing on the front struts and rear guards as the 20's I had on mine were near useleless with passengers unless you had stock FE2 springs in it and they were running a smaller tyre as to avoid the need for coilovers in the front.

i've done a quick chop of the GTS wheels onto my car. you'll have to excuse the dodgy red bit on the front wheel - didn't have time to fix it but it should give you an idea of what they would look like. follow the link...

Not a fan of any of the VEs wheels.
The 19" Senators rims are pretty damn nice though, as is the Senator itself. Fcuk I want one!!
I reckon those would suit a VL much more than the GTS ones, not to mention 20" wheels on a VL is just too big, and makes it look like a hot wheels cars....
