Yup they fit, but look wrong. Too small

Depends which ones and what tyres you intend to fit?

Eg an 18" vectra et38 with 245 and rim protection will foul the shock. And a 50 profile will foul the spring cup.

Should be fine in oe sizes though.

They run a lot of sizes, up to 19" in some cases.

you can fit, but the offset is wrong.

Expect steering issues

I think the 5 stud Vectra wheels from >02 should fit with no issues. Both  seem to be 5x110 PCD 35 to 45 Offset  65.1 Bore.

that's a bit vague -is it 35 offset or 45 offset ?

10mm will make a very appreciable difference to your ground-level offset and therefore a big difference to the steering weight and feel.

Had both omega and vectra sport stars on mine. No issues what so ever, 8 mm difference in offset. So 16mm difference in wheel track.

If there was any issue to be had on those wheels, buggered if I could find it.

just as an aside - which have you got on now ?

and you've got steering issues, right......?

Here are Vectra 02's sitting on my Elite.  Offset may be slightly out but tis hard to tell.

These are 17" with the 235/45/17 tyres on !
