wheel help please
« on: 30 May 2013, 09:48:26 »

just got wifey a vectra estate 1.9 diesel sri 55 reg/06 could i change the wheel from my standard 2.6 CD estate to the vectra . thats wheels and tyres

vectra wheels/tyres are 215/50/R17/91W

cant remember the omega wifey has it at the momment think they are 225/55/R16/93W

and if it can be done would you do it bearing in mind vectra wheels have some bad scratches and omegas are unmarked plus thye also have new tryes and vectras tyres are nearly shot.

prefer the vectra wheel but have to rember this is wifeys car and the profile sticks out for some nice kerbing effect where as the omegas are slightly set back, plus wifey doont give a shite about wheels :o :D
