Just get the astra 2.0l ones, they are dead cheap and make such a difference. The discs are 4mm wider but the caliper is much bigger. Watch out though, as i came across, when fitting the 2.0l calipers they will foul the Alesio wheels. Some 5mm spacers will be required and i bought longer wheel bolts just incase but i hear they are not needed, i thought id play safe though.
If not i have some 1.6 ones which i dont need anymore
Hope that helps shaun
