    Anyone here with 19's on a mk3 cav?

    Right, i have a set of 19's currently on my vectra, which is for sale. I am toying with the idea of getting a mk3 cav sri redtop. Now i would love to keep the 19's from my vectra and put them on the cav. Would they fit? They are 7x19 Team dynamics K2's with 215/35/19 tyres fitted. the offset is ET45. They went straight onto my vec with no arch mods riding on standard springs. Would they fit on a mk3 cav though?

    They should do.

    I have trial fitted the same size and tyre's on my gsi and they fitted ok. They were a bit close to the rear skirt trim on the rear but my cav was lowered 60mm so didnt help.

    They size you have is the best you can get

    Right, just found out that the rims are 7.5J wide and not 7J as i mentioned earlier. Will they still fit? Will i have to roll the lip on the rear arches?

    probably, itll rub at some point, due to the extra width

    The front's could rub on full lock, if they do it will be on the inner wing
