Not realy. The rear might fit but you 'd have to check diff ratios'. The front suspension on a Vit is independant - completely differant set up. The easy solution is wheel spacers and or off set rims. You could put Landrover axels in, ask Rolla for how! or even Jimny axels which are slightly wider.

if you want a wider ride, I have 4 7" rims for sale for £60, that'll stop it from falling over quite so easy ;)
