    to buy or not to buy from ebay? that is my question

    hi guys

    as you may or may not know i am looking for wheels for my 2005 holden...i mean 'opel' vectra cdxi and i am very determined to have these specific wheels i have seen on a youtube video.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B9PNbw-jiOo

    they are the old style audi rs6

    it seems no one can get them in 19s and am very tempted to get them off ebay in the us.

    do you guys recommend me buying from ebay..

    http://shop.ebay.com/i.html?Part%252...=p3286.c0.m282

    total for rims with shipping costs = 1468 australian

    plus i would need to pay for redrilling them to fit my 5x110, and with tyres it should be costing me all up over 2k. is it worth it?

    indeed it sounds like a huge hassle but it seems they are the only wheels i seem to like on this vectra.

    i can get 18s of the same wheel with re pcd with tyres for 1700.

    Or you could get these

    http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Genuine-19-in...#ht_619wt_1165

    Very rare you'd be the only vec in australia with them on, most likely

    They are in australia, have been previously owned by a member, and come with tyres with alot of thread. IMO they look better, pricewise, and they would be a straight fit onto the vec. Click here to enlarge

    edit. i just read that your 'determined' to get those audi ones, I was just offering something else. If you've got the money you can whatever you like.

    After enquiring about the same wheels some of the guys on here said the load rating is wrong. You'd have to get new tyres but they look Mint on the veccy Eitherway.

    Have you had a look at some B.Boss 19" Eleanor's?
