Hello All,
I cannot for the life of me locate the tyre placard on my VP Exec.

I have looked in the door jambs and the glovebox but its nowhere to be found.

Anyone have any ideas?

All I want to know is if I can legally replace the cheese cutters with 215/60 14 tyres as you can on an EB/ED Falcon.

Thanks, Jim...

Hi Jim

I'm pretty sure that the tyre placard on a VP is on the radiator support panel. Not a good spot, most panelbeaters wouldn't bother replacing it after a smash repair.

I think 215/60 14 tyres would be OK on a VP, but why don't you go up to 15",

Other than she wants to keep it dead stock no reason at all. I doesnt even matter that 15" steelies were an option on VPs.

I have already collected a 15" spare for it.

Dr Terry the tyre placard was exactly where you said it was and quite wrink
