Off set is wrong so no.....

Why do you want steel wheels, they are two a penny for the Omega (get them from the spare wheel wells on breakers)

Plus alloys can be got for little money to...

Vauhall, 15", 5 stud - I don't see why not, but pricey for steel.  Can't you get one from a scrappy - with a tyre fitted already and no postage?

Aren't the spare steel wheels on Omegas a different size to the standard fit or is it just the tyre size? Either way, scavenged items from the scrappy wouldn't be directly suitable as a straight swap.

My Alloys are 225/55/16 and the spare is steel 205/65/15.  Scrappy wheel would do, until he finds a new set of 17's - rather than risking driving on the faulty existing wheel.

Spare wheel is a standard Omega 15 inch rim with a standard Omega 15 inch tyre...the same size tyre as fitted to earlier 15 inch alloys and the same wheel setup as fitted to most explod cars....
