old thread but rather than start new, I have ordered these wheels Lorenzo WL036, now they are going on VE SS, Size is 20x10 20x8,5 + 35 offset I think or may be drilled , my SS has Brembo Front Brakes and VE HSV RED Brakes, now the online shop I have bought from have insisted they will fit no problems, but then I see the same wheel onanother online shop, and they say wont clear brakes, now im abit worried because theyre being freighted over east, do shops have the machining to pre set the offset ect?

The spoke design may save them. A normal VE is 36+ isn't it anyway? The rears are +56 on a HSV.
The wheels will come as is, the wheel shop won't be machining anything.
Am ordering Koya SF06 for my VE SS, the sizes are 19x10.5 and 19x8.5 , for the rears to be flush with guard , a 38+ offset work,
Add 8mm to the front rim edge of your current 20X10, hold a straight edge up and see where that sits in relation to the guard, that should give you a pretty good clue of where the 10.5 +38 will end up.

as Jason said, the wheel will be 8mm further out. this website is great for comparing wheel/tyre sizes.

Yes 100 percent correct, rung both koya and the wheel shop, said with same camber adjustment the wheel will sit flush with the guard , only other thing is the hub thread will need cutting to allow wheel cap fitment. Saying that they have said sleep on my choice tonite and can adjust my order to 19x9.5 rears instead which is a safe bet but wont have as much concave.
I been reading this thread a few times now that I got a VE (Calais wagon S2) thought I would post my clearance related issues.
Does any one know what tyres you can stretch front and back with out setting off the ABS stuff based on my current setup.
I currently have,
20x10 +40 Rear rapped in 275/30/20 & 20x9 +35 Front in 245/35/20
Fenders rolled and bumper bracket relocated, Fronts are good but rear I get some scrubs when fully loaded with people in the back as its a tight fit, hoping to stretch a smaller tyre on the back to clear it up.
20x10 with 275 does need a bit of work if your going low, pics below, most likely they only reason why i getting some scrub as the rear bumper part just isn't wide enough

you can go to a 255/35R20 which is about 2% larger, or a 265/30R20 which is about 0.9% smaller. both wont cause wheel speed issues and i dare say your speedo will be fine (both my VE's read under by a good 5-6%)
Had 19x10.5 put on last week,with 8.5 fronts, the rear does poke out, as mentioned earlier +6mm , not that noticeable but enough to look over my shoulder at the lights for cops
The wheels themselves are very very light, compared to the 20's that were on the car, it really has woken up the throttle response down low and mid range, it wont take much to light up!!
Looks wise, 20's would look better. Performance wise 19's for the win. Will be ordering 19x9.5 for the rears, nit taking any changes with the cops
