I'd recommend avoiding Ozzy and Tempe... but then you're in Victoria so you're OK :P

quite like the ones you have, saw them on another user on here, totally looked awesome with the car lowered and all..

do you know if they would fit the vectra c

[Nurb608]

bartisgood has them on his veccy c with no issues, and he's got the car dumped! They are the astra vxr rims.

[vectra2005]

yeah definitely on the top of my list at the moment,

just looking for other options...

obviously opel is based in europe, so do you goes know of any places that specialise in european style rims.. that way i have more options to choose from

[gmonkey]

snowflakes are bestbet.. if u dont mind waiting a little while try

ebay.co.uk or ebay.de, i got myn from the uk
or
tirerack.com (ur car isnt listed i imagine use the astra)
or
bkracing.co.uk

[vectra2005]

im a little clueless on what to search for...

i mean when searching for rims for my vectra what terms would be best to use in search engines.

'vectra wheels'

+1

They look stunning on the Vectras.

'vectra wheels'
search for either

5x110 wheels
vxr wheels
vectra or astra (then use the catogories till u get to tyres)

these look awesome too, but whether or not they look as good on vectra is a different story

[ChrisMaz]

I think either snowflakes or the style that Abbie has on her CDXI. She recently joined so check the introductions page.

[Shay]

[Nurb608]

[vectra2005]

[gmonkey]

what about 19" ROH Mantis wheels? can source local aswell

http://www.bgworldwheels.co.nz/images2/mantis2.jpg

[Nurb608]

with the rs6's they say they are 5x112... will they fit on the vectra which are 5x110 as mentioned earlier

you can get them re-drilled to fit, shouldnt cost much

[gmonkey]

need wobble bolts or a pcd exchanger plate.. both are illegal but cops prob wont be able to tell with wobble bolts

[Shay]

with the rs6's they say they are 5x112... will they fit on the vectra which are 5x110 as mentioned earlier

you can get these things called wobble bolts, they are not too expensive and are legal in aus.

think they should allow you to use 5 x 108 to 5 x 112,

PM WRAITH HE HAS THEM AND CAN TELL YOU MORE, and make sure im right about the sizes...

[gmonkey]

Do you like any of these?? there all 19"s to fit, and roughly $100USD each

If you want 19's that'll suit an Opel, try the Advanti catalogue, they have a few 19 x 7.5" sized rims with offsets of 42 and above which is what you'll need for hassle free fitment and operation...

Most will be PCD 5x114.3 which can be re-drilled to 5x110...(I'm assuming yours is a 5 stud).

Have a look at the 'stalker' design, very nice and will suit the Vecce and has all the above specs in 19" :)
