Heysteve.qld, yeah those are the ones and zero issue with rubbing, running BF K02 265/65/R17 for reference. I went through Jax Tyres [in WA] in the end as they were the cheapest I could get with 5x rim and tyre but the guys were helpful. Just ask about rubbing from where you get them if you're concerned, the folks there should be able to clarify.

Not sure about the VX but https://roh.com.au/wheels/vapour/ lists all the versions they offer. I got conflicting info from a couple of places but one place said that would fit so I decided to roll the dice.

Didn't realise the weight difference between LT and HT tyres was so massive. Knew they were heavier but not this much!!
Sorry for the pics in lbs, didnt realise I'd bumped the switch on the scales till afterwards, and couldnt be bothered re-weighing in 21st century weight scale.
265/70 KO2 on 17x7.5 = 38kg - 11.2 rim = 26.8kg tyre
285/65 Continental HT on 17x8.5 = 30.3kg - 11.5 rim = 18.8kg tyre
26.8kg / 18.8kg = 40% difference!!!
No wonder it feels like a jet now....
Will be interesting to see on my next 800km trip up the hume and back what the fuel economy is like..
