i think so!

I have seen VeccyB Sri alloys fitted to an Omega.

They looked awful though!!

Make sure you are fitting at least 16"

...and 2.0 Prefacelift, facelifted models had 5 stud on 1.8 upwards (So they could fit the bigger brake setup without having to produce four 'hole' discs)

No....4 pots had 5 studs too.......well my 1.8 veccyB did........

I have a space saver in my boot which was for a veccy.......but ive been told it will fit my Omega......altho its very small.....and ive never tried it so dont really know....

But id say yes......but would look odd.......veccyB tyres on my 1.8 were 195's........omegas are 225's

the offset will be different as well....

most FWD stuff is an ET45, i believe Omega is ET38....

hence the reason FWD stuff looks weird on RWD cars.
I have seen a Omega estate going round plymouth with Cavalier turbo rims on, just doesn't look right

an omega will take offset between 35-45, as will vectra, there's a difference in the bore on the older vectra, only being 56.1, the 02 onward vectra is 65.1, which is the same as the omega
