Steinmetz Wheels
« on: 04 February 2016, 08:24:16 »

There appears to be a few different types that look similar to each other...  :-\

What is the name / size of Steinmetz the Omega should have?, Looking about the top picture appears to be a Astra option, Although I've seen pictures with them on Omegas maybe because they are a tad easier to get?... I'm presuming the 2nd picture was the factory optional extra as such for the Omega?






But then in this picture below the rear wheel appears to have a deeper dish than the front...  :-\ ...I know very little about Steinmetz, Hence all the questions.





...There are these on eBay UK and as i thought they are smaller at 16" LINK ..so probably intended for the smaller cars Corsa, Astra etc..

[EDIT:] It does say in the description: "Originally offered as optional extras for Vauxhall astra G (mk4) and the Vauxhall Corsa C"

Wasn't going to buy them just the only ones on eBay  :y

Think i'll keep an eye out for some from eBay Europe or somewhere they do appear to me more common outside of the U.K.
