help me decide please. dont know what wheels to get.
only reason i want to change is to allow for bigger brake fitments, and better tyres to improve handling slightly.
car at minute:

want to keep the same colour wheels as i already have, as i like it.
any opinions?
p.s no bigger than 16s, and preferably standard vaux wheels

15" or 16" Softstars if you can find them and afford them. Astra Cesaro 15" look good too

I went in to Motor World the other day (god knows why) and they had some 17" wheel and tyre packages on display that said Vauxhall fitment. Looked at the offset and they were ET35 and ET38 They know fuck all

by 'vauxhall fitment' they mean they will bolt on. the fact the tyres will last 5 minutes they 'decide not to tell you' about, meaning they'll get there money, and then there happy

White MO's would look stunning but if your not wanting white wheels then Team Dynamics Pro Race 2's in black
