Hi Again,
I have fitted VP Commodore disc's to the front of my HQ Ute and also fitted a VP diff to the rear, I have 8 new 225 x 65 x 14 96H tyres and am hoping say with 14'' rims with Commodore stud patern I might be able fit theb wheels, the backing plate may be slightly to large on the front but may be able to make smaller.

I have an early series 1 V6 so it does look pretty good disc size wise.
I purchased a VP to HQ disc brake conversioin kit from Castlemaine Rodshop but I had to get track down 2 x HQ drum brake stubs so they could machine them t
