    put the tyres on the bottom ones , sell them to a nova owner for a couple hundred and put £50 towards a set of 2nd hand 17s

    BRB
    when the gagged ones are reinstated

    but i dont want 17's

    i like it on 15's. i cover just over 25,000 miles a year, and cant afford 2 sets of 17's a year.

    unfortunatly it really has to be one of the above.

    come on guys....best of a bad bunch....which one?

    I'd go for the bottom ones. Top ones are from a late MK4 LS iirc. Not nice.

    Personally, I am not sure that either would suit the car. Hunt around for a set of 15" Astra Sport wheels. Plentiful, suit the car and were also fitted to last batch mk3 LS and CDX.

    I do prefer the Corsa rims though. Those top ones are really ugly.

    Why not just leave them then.

    Or try and hunt around for a set of these.

    leave witch ones on? i think i will have to get a photo of the current ones when i take them off.....they are REALLY bent. lmao they have a flat spot that is about 20cm across! oh well i do live on a farm...

    what are the alloys on urs?? what size? they look great.

    might have to go with the corsa ones, but i guess mig is all about being differant, and that would be differant!!

    Yeah, it's nice when the sun is in too. Even with the hood up what with the V6 under the bonnet.

    The wheels on the Cavalier are 15". They are found on some Cavalier SRi 16v's, Cavalier Cesaro 1.8's (of which mine is) and also some of the SE Calibras from the same time period.

    Click the link in my signature if you're bored. Bit more about it there.

    Get some pics up when the rims are on. Be interesting to see how it looks.
