    Wheel Fitment

    Hi Guys!

    I am new to the forum and need expert advice on a set of wheels (brother wants to give them to me)

    22x9.5" - 13mm offset - 6x139.7 bolt pattern.

    I was wondering if these fit on a stock set-up and whats the maximum tire size without rubbing.

    I have been reading everything on this forum like mad. there is so much to know. This is my first time buying and getting a truck. I build street cars and everything is about lowering.

    Thanks!

    No VX Yet. Soon...

    er... where does the technical questions go?

    Hi ZEROSIX!

    A 22" x 9,5 will fit on a stock suspension VX;Actually there's few Vx's with those sizes.It's important that the center bore hole is no smaller them 100mm of diameter to fit perfectly

    In regards of the tire size i think you may have to trim the wheel wells,crank the torsion bars,changing the springs or a combination of all depending on how big you want those tires

    There's excelent web site called TIRERACK.COM where you can see how a set up would look like.

    Also we have here a thread called PLEASE POST PICS OF ALL RIMS & TIRES,SIZES SPECS,ETC.

    There's a lot of VX's with custom rims/tires you can chech in there

    Welcome to the hood,since you on the market for a VX check out CARS.COM few VX is offered for sale.

    Good luck !

    The bolt pattern is correct, but I do not know about the offset. You very well may need to do some trimming of the cladding to fit. Good luck & see you in Lake Geneva.

    Best bet...get a local VXer to swing by and do a test fit! Or do the same when you get yours.
