Bigger steelies -eg astra???

Post by Jimi137 »

Hi guys. Im looking to explore different ways of modding my car to make it look individual and i want to have steel rims. The problem is that the stock corsa rims have pretty narrow tyres on them and also are only 13". I was wondering if maybe 14" or 15" astra steelies would fit (obv with smaller, lower profile tyres on them)? I know a saxo on autotrader atm has C5 steel wheels on it so i was wondering what the options are for this kind of thing on my corsa

Thanks in advance guys

for a start this should be in general help not ice. yes cav steels will fit and any other 4stud vauxhall steel wheels will fit jst make you you get all 4 wheels to have the same tryes

sounds a bit ott i know but im sure the omega came with 16inch steelies but that would mean doing a 5stud conversion but would also allow you to go much much bigger on the brakes

Nice, thats sounds pretty gd. How much work is it to do a 5 stud conversion though?
