VE sized tyres wont fit on a VL, you will need like 225/50 or something like that

Should fit, if not go down a tyre size to 215's, it won't be the offset that's the issue it will be your tyre choice.

07-12-11, 04:16 GMT+10#11 The correct answer has already been provided, why won't you listen? The tyre is hitting the spring seat because the tyres are way too big for a VL
Factory VL tyre size 205/65R15 = 25.49" overall diameter
Factory VE tyre size 225/60R16 = 26.62" overall diameter
225/55R16 would be the correct size for a VL (25.74")
