Does anyone know if I can get a rwc for my vl with 19's? I have the right load index rating.. Lol

No you can only go 2 inches higher than stock wheel size.

apparently it's 25mm larger in diameter than factory is allowed

So does that mean the cops could be pricks and canary me for having 19's? Cos every second decent vl around these days have 19's... Do you guys cop any trouble from the boys in blue for big rims?

Yeah have a couple of times. Even if you have stock wheels the police can pick on you.. just depends on what mood they are in and your attitude towards them.

I dont know about vic but the rules in sa are you can have any size wheel as long as it is within 15mm rolling diameter as original and have the same or better load rating.

yer VIC is the same as SA. 2inch rule went out many years ago

yes as said above its off rolling diameter but alot of pigs will still try to do you for it and you prove them wrong so they just find something else to pick on.. as said all depends on the cop and the attitude hes in or the attitude you give him haha

Hmm interesting... So you can go 19's if you can find a low enough profile tyre that makes it the same rolling diameter but at the same time trying to find a low enough profile tyre with the right load rating index..? Does anyone know what the legal rolling diameter is for a vl??

65mm+15inches+15mm

So A total rolling diameter of = 461mm/46.1cm?? Time to get the tape-measure out...

19" is 48.26cm. 15% of 46.1 is 6.915cm. so... 48.26 - 46.1 = 2.16cm. 6.915 - 2.16 = 4.815 of tyre to play with.

Why dont you save all the hassle and find someone with 15" or 16" wheels who is willing to swap for the day to get a roady?

Nah I have a set of 15"stockies that I'm going to use for rwc , I just want to make sure when I put my 19's on later that my car is still completely legal, everything I have done to my car so far is legal and I want to keep it that way. Cos a P plater driving a tidy 5ltr vl with 19's is massive cop bait... And if I have everything by the book and hard evidence of all the legal rules in my car, then they can go eat a **** everytime they pull me^ over... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

im failing to see the point here..... you want 19s that will be legal but your driving a V8 on your Ps???

If you obtained your probationary lisence before 1 July 2007( which I did), it goes by the old power to weight ratio of 125kw/ton... And since I keep loosing my lisence I still have my p's till I'm 30 and therefor can still drive a v8, turbo etc... As long as I keep the power down..

fair enough then
