Re: alloys HELP PLEASE
you'll probably need to do something to the rear arches and/or get wider arch kit for 17s

Your looking for as close to offset ET49 as you can get to save rubbing problems, but with 17" you will have srubbing. Why not go with 15" Vaux wheels, save you alot of time and effort and give a good feel/stance to the car

Re: alloys HELP PLEASE
The ideal Vauxhall offset is ET49, The problem you will get is you buy alloys with a lower offset, they will stick out, meaning they will hit the arches and rubtanzil wrote:yh do you know what ofset i should have on them or what this means

Re: alloys HELP PLEASE
I suggest getting a set of Vauxhall Alloys, double check that the offset is ET49 but they will fit lush and look qualitytanzil wrote:what do you suggest then

Re: alloys HELP PLEASE
They have offset ET35, which means if you lower it you will have serious rubbing issues

Erm i will say yeah, but they will stick out which will affect your ride, think if you have summit heavy in your car, or even serious speed bumps. Just keep that in mind mateytanzil wrote:willthese be ok if u dont lower my car

Re: alloys HELP PLEASE
don't get those .. i swear you will regret it .. honestly !!!! get some vauxhall 15" .. some astra or cav jobbies .. cheaper and also GM manufactured for a recomended better fit !!!! saves money mate and if they are in poo condition .. get am re-furbed .. still be cheaper !!!
Matt Neal for the championship ....woo off to thruxton next sunday !!!
