Hey guys, Long story short I bought a vl calais, had her stolen, got her back with f***** wheels, just wondering if 19" ve gts rims are roadworthy as I dont want to screw up my insurance just yet? Thanks Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I believe you can legally only upgrade rim size 2" from factory spec. So 17" max.

Walkinshaw rims were 7" wide, so you can go 8" in width, but just make sure the rolling diameter is equivalent, or only 15mm larger.
