Ive had a astra H for a little while now and have been thinking of selling it as its a bit boring, but have now decided to keep it but mod it slightly.

Ive managed to source a xp kit for it for free, just need to get it painted, however im stuck for what wheels to get for it. Ideally wanted the 18" pentas for it but mines is only a 4 stud so cant get them, was looking at the pictures of scoobs one on the bbs which looks great but they only come on 5 stud as well.

So really looking for peoples opinions on what to get, has to be 4 stud, would prefer 18's as i think 17's would look to small on the astra.

Oh and post up pics if you have some as well, cheers folks!

thanks for the replies folks! yours looks great on them matt, pretty sure the 18's only come in 5 stud though.

forgot all about the tigra ones, anyone got a picture of them fitted to a astra H? not to sure if 17's will look to small as the arches are pretty big on them, 18's seem to fill the gap nicely
