lolz this is funny as guys its not a chop i have seen them in real life on the car, trust me he might knows more about the ve than you guys think you know. they still look awsome give it time, when your the only person around with ssv 19's on a vl they will apeal to ya
they are 100% the same stud pattern, the off set im not sure about and the hole for the hub needs to be machined. and as long as u use the right taper nuts.
RJB 223- how much clearance is there from tire to guard on the rear? do they hit on front struts?
center caps are originaly black so if im not mistaken he would prob geting them painted or trying to organise some silverones thru someone at holden or something, dont really think it would look good with black center caps anyway
How and where did you get your hand's on those so soon?!
Or has some unlucky Toorak resident already had his brand new VE jacked up on bricks?!
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
Yeah thanks for the comments guys. In regards to centre caps I have to wait about 2 weeks for some new silver ones. They will fit perfect. If you look closely at center caps on VE SS’s and VE SSV’s, you’ll notice there designed differently and connect to the wheel in a different way.

The majority of VE wheels (except rear wheels on HSV's) have same offset as previous commodore. I've got 235/35/19's and they easily clear the front struts and rear guards.

Nah, My work has plenty of VE wheels If the VE had BMW badges on it the Toorak residents would probably buy it

yeah looks for real ey, if u notice there is no centre caps on all the mags...if it had to get machined from inside, which it did the centre caps wouldnt fit on at all as the hub from the rotor would stick out the centre hole
about the stud pattern etc...
the stud pattern is still the same 5/120
the studs are thicker torque them to 170 nm
the hub center is smaller
offset is different
this is 100% got the ve info book from work with alll specs oils to use ect

Interesting decision, you would of thought holden would be keen to cash in on the large aftermarket wheel industry, instead they are encouraging companies to make copies
Geuss it doesnt really matter if it doesnt take much to fit them to the old holden hubs
What type of camera do you have out of curiosity, you always have awesome photos
