Insignia wheels will fit HSV's= Monaro's & VXR8's. As said they're a different PCD.
I wouldn't use spacers, they put extra load on running gear.

on a 1.7 ton car how important is 5-6 kgs.. I'm using them without probs and many people use also..
 
imo rolling radius of tire is more critical.. if you go for bigger sizes it effects acceleration more..

It is not the weight of the spacers that increases load its the extra offset generated which loads the suspension :y

thats correct, but those are anyway wear tear items.. may require changing them early at most..
 
 
that said, road handling on curves seems better now.. :y

Agreed. Unsprung weight is the key.
