Just had to dig deep and give Vx £158 for a wheel, tyre, threaded spindle and securing nut. Robbing barstewards ;D
Phoned dixons Vauxhall breakers in Leeds and was told they are never available because the wheel is different from astra H.

'kinell! :o

On a good note, the threaded spindle was only £2odd. Never bought a Vx part for under three quid. ::)
-
Pcd is different, 115 iirc, not even the same as the Insignia ::)
-
On a side note and I know the Omega is a different size to the disAstra, but Saabs have a 5 stud space saver which will fit the older VXs.
Just adding it incase of future searches.

Where's Opti to tell me how minted I am? ;D

Don't know about the offset, the tyre size is 115/70/16.
The tyres on the car are 205/60/16's which, I think, are different to Astra H (205/55/16's?).

Nah. £140 with postage that one. I've got a jack and wheel brace, so don't need any more garage fodder. I'd have to wait in for it and, most of all, it's fickin eBay.
Don't mind spending the extra £18 to have it actually in my car.

The Omega comes with a spare. :)

The Pcd is the spacing of the studs/bolt holes :y Astra H, like the Vectra C, Saabs, Omega, and all other previous five stud GM cars (excluding bigger Holdens) are all 110mm, the Astra J/Zafira C is 115mm and the Insignia is 120mm :y

Pity it doesn't come with a spare engine.

Yes...but it's only money. Money is for spending, a concept alien to a tightarse like you. You'll end up keeling over and leaving it for me and Mrs Opti to spend. ;D
