I've had my VZ's on since last weekend, but only was able to snap a couple of pics this week. Here's a couple of pics of my VZ's with 245/40/18 BFG NT's:

Do those have the same 48mm offset as the Pontiac 18s?

That's what I was told - that they have the exact same specs. The Pontiac caps fit in the VZ wheels, too.

Rims look great - They look like they kind of "bulge" out from the center like the stock 17's.
Do you have any more pics?

Yes - they have a little more "depth" to them than the stock 18's. The stock 18's kinda look like fan blades to me. I'll get some more pics after I get her cleaned up.

One MBM owner posted some pics yesterday and now all of the other MBM owners start posting up.
BTW it looks really good. IMHO MBM is one of the best colors and those VZ rims are sick.

Im trying to get a set for my mbm as well hopefully someone will buy my stockers and offset the price. You think you could put the stock tires from the 17's onto these 18s?

hmmm. 17 inch tire onto an 18 inch rim. Nope shouldn't be a problem. I have 20 inch tires on my 18 inch rims. I like that big low profile look. :drink:

those rims just look fantastic on our cars. Pontiac really d*ked us with the retarded brake dust holding 17s, even the stock 18s dont look that good.

I saw those wheels on another car at the Nats this past week. Those rims are the shiznit. :thumbs:
But, the fun is just beginning. The new VE Commodores have been displayed in OZ. They have a couple new wheels designs which will look great on our goats.

Those VZ's are the best Holden rims that I've seen IMO. They look totally sick in chrome too.

BTW the CV8-R tail lamps look great on a MBM and the genuine VZ Monaro wheels give your GTO that real Aussie flavor.

Thanks!! It is already 1 of 114 and I wanted to make it even more one of a kind while still using genuine GM/Holden parts.
