I think you either need spacers or gotta grind down the calipers a bit :-\

Re:vx wheels on a ex
 
on the hub before the wheels go on...basically extends the wheel out a bit

vx wheels are 13's. unfortunatly 13's dont fit on an ex up front but will fit in the back. since ex's have bigger brakes than dx cx's and what not it just will not fit

Werd I am rocking the 14" HX wheels. I also have the expensive 5mm H&R spacers because the shitty aluminum ones I was using were ------- up my wheel studs. I also ended up getting extended ARP wheel studs.

VX kinda look like mini versions of the older ITR 4 lug rims. I like the VX rims but would have to shave down some of my GSR calipers and more likely run spacers too. :'(
VX. The VX's are like smaller chubby versions of them but wuper light nevertheless. They weigh like 8-9 lbs. Only thing that sucks is the shitty tire selection for those if you want something performance wise.

What is the width for these wheels. VX and HX, anyone?

beerbongskickass 11-20-2004 01:16 AM

Re:vx wheels on a ex
 
HX wheels are 14 x 5.5 and I have 205/55/14's (Nitto 555r drag radials) on my extra set right now. I have ran the tire pressure as low as 12psi at the track without problems.

Look at the pics. There not identical, just very similar.
