1st one looks mickey mouse apart from the centre caps

you can get bolts to fit 5x112 rims on 5x110 hubs, i think the uk fellas call em wobbly bolts

Correct - more precise name to them is 'offset lugs' but yes generally refered to as 'wobble bolts'...

I have a set of Momo 17" 5x112 PCD wheels I've run on both my Cali and Astra with those...if anyone's interested let me know and I'll post up some pics of them.

Back on topic, those Audi rims look good on the Astra (that style will suit most cars IMO) but as mentioned by others a good idea to replace the centre logo cap appropriately or it looks ridiculous having a different car manufacturers name on there...

[Wraith]

yer?

Anyone else have anymore info on this before I do a google?

Missed this post - looks like I'll have to put some info up on them...

Will have to be this weekend when I've get some time to take pics of mine and give you guys a a bit of a description on them

i always reckon tehse would look good on a black astra
similar style

Nah, pretty sure they're like the elliptical bolts used in camber kits.
You can do it....but i wouldn't want to...

Nope not like that at all...

As mentioned I've got a set of wheels I've run with them on both my Opels over a period of 7 years and never had any issues with them, they are totally secure and reliable ! not sure however on the legality of them ?? they are very common and all of the major aftermarket wheel manufacturers make them

[Wraith]

i was told you can get re-drilled plugs, they drill your existing ones wider and then they plug them up so they line up.. but IMO i bet thatd look like crud..

only cars i know that do 5x110 other than opel is saab..

That's the most common method used to transform wheels to any PCD that's not available and if done properly the integrity of the rim is the same as it originally was, as the original rim also features a drilled hole with a steel plug or insert also if done properly they don't look crud and they will line up perfectly as they are re-drilled on a CNC machine

SAAB factory rims are indeed 5x110 (who knows if that will continue though) and in Europe there are numerous aftermarket wheels available in 5x110 because the demand is there for it - different story here in Aust. however it is possible to get many styles converted (usually using 5x114.3 Jap fitment rims) the difficult part is finding rims with a suitable offset and width more so than the 5x110 PCD !

They do look good Pete...I've seen them in 19" on a TS - very nice, despite not fitting in properly...

Prob is the width and offset of those is all wrong for an earlier series Opel (they hang out on this TS I mentioned) and here in Melb. every 2nd man and his dog with a Commodore has those rims LOL

Theres is guy on astra owners network with porsche 911 5 spoke 19" rims on his maroon convertible TS.
