Hi Guys,

I'm looking to buy mr bro some alloy wheels for his 96'Astra van,would anyone know the offset of his standard wheels ? Or have any knowledge of what later year standard wheels I could buy him ?
Thanks in advance for any help

 

vauxhalls are generally 49mm offset

Pretty much any standard four stud vauxhall rim will fit any four stud vaux from recent years.

Try some 4 stud tigra/calibra 5 spokes if you want some good looking rims on a budget- perfect fit and can get a set for under £200 with tyres if you shop around.

 

i've seen astras with Rover alloys fitted, i think Peugeot might fit as well (check first)

 

Peugeot wheels will not fit a Vauxhall. Peugeot have the same stud pattern as Ford.

Other manufacturers wheels will 'fit' ie Volkswagon but I strongly urge you to stick as close as possible to the original 49mm offset that FWD Vauxhall's have. Anything over 42mm should be ok...

 

Thanka a lot guys my bro gona be a happy boy ( its his birthday today ) cheers F1, may well buy that set tomorrow !!
