looked on there before keith and its only the chaos, the RS-V copy that i like and i put it up against the car today at south west tyres but it wasnt enough for me to dig deep!

ive got the new tyres on the way now and so the new wheel search will continue again in a few months now!

Anyone know how to give a polished effect to a set of wheels?

Keith check reginals mate, and on a random note whenever typing your name i always add an er on the end then have to delete it

Mine are 8x18 5x110 ET40.

Opel fitment was 8.5, these are based on Volvo or something, CH 022 rings a bell. They're the narrower ones.

The Regal car had the Opel fitment I think - and they didn't fit as well as mine

I think it looks like the wheels haven't been cleaned in a while so have alot of brake dust on them

Kahn RSV or RSC or BBS. Anything else looks a bit tacky
