Don't panic, he's not leaving us:
Check lower down and you'll see why it's on there:

"The reason I am selling this car is that I now own a 2004 Omega."

 :question

Miggy,

What size are those alloys mate, 18 or 19?

Do you find it makes it much harsher than the standard 17 x 45 tyres?

No mate, the wheels are 18s, she drives well with them on and sticks like Sh"t to a blanket on bends. There is a bit more tyre noise as opposed to the standatd 16s.

Re they 235x45 x 18" tyres?

It's just that I'm looking at some wheels right now. I was thinking of the 19" snowflakes from the new Vectra/Signum, but I think they'll be a bit harsh TBH.

They look damn good though :y (Courtesy of OMEGA-ELITE's thread)

I'm going to go for these 18"s from a new Corsa VXR I think: (tyres will be marginally cheaper too I reckon)

Nice wheels, make sure they will fit your miggy before buying..and a bit of advice........when fitted with the new tyres have the geomatory checked out..........i came unstuck on that and ended up having 2 front tyres wear out in a few months.......had the car checked out...a few adjustments made .....2 new tyres and she is right as rain now.

If you have her checked.....pick someone who knows their stuff...keep away from Kwik fit and the likes......IMHO

I know that they're 5 bolt 110bcd, but I'm not sure of the offset or J rating as yet; I'm trying to find that out.

They are pretty standard Vauxhall 5 bolt wheels though. :-/

Any advice?
