NO, no no no no no!!! Even if you like the look, they are only 7.5" wide. You don't want to go below 8" for the wheel width.

Out of those 4 the one with the red lip looks the best. But we need to know the bolt pattern and the offset of the wheel to let you know if it will fit or not...

If you're getting upgraded wheels, why waste your money on wheels that will keep the stock image? I reccomend 9" width and above to fill out the fender and get a decent offset 35-40. Also silver wheels IMO dont belong on a VR...
