Hi, does anyone know where i could buy a set of 18" astra/zafira vxr wheels.

thanks

It this point in time...... Vauxhall will probably be your only bet although doubt they'll be onsale yet. You may have to provide proof that you own a VXR model as Vauxhall get funny with VXR stuff. Plus, they are 19's, not 18's.

Thanks for your reply mate. i'll try with vauxhall. I had previously seen them on a coupe on the astra coupe club site maybe some sort of lookalike. My understanding so far is that the astra vxr will come with 18's and an option to upgrade to 19's for another £500. Any other suggestions for wheels on my coupe would be helpful. pref 18"or 19"

Thanks

Didn't know that. Doubt they'd be the same style....who knows though. There was a chap on here selling a set as he'd bought them for his Coupe, but had a few issues with them rubbing. I cannot find the thread at the moment, so can't help there I'm afraid.

Some others to look at if you like to keep GM style stuff (all Irmscher).....

These are a new 19" design. Not long been available. Come as ET35. Called 'Delta-Design'



Again, another new design, this is the 'Evostar'. This is available in 20" format, so rather large. Come as 18" and 19" afaik



This is the 'Styla'. Comes as an 18" rim



Older rim, but still one of my favourites. This is the 'Sport star'. Comes in 18"

Like those


LOVING that black Astra

lmao at the guy attending to his pits in the second photo!

Cheers for the pics, I am now stuck between the ones in the pictures which i have heard are 19" Zafira wheels and the 19" Delta Design. Any ideas on how much hassle they would cause me to fit on to a lowered coupe and can you just walk in to vauxhall and order these as i cant find them on there site?



These look nice as well...Decisions Decisions!

You can buy most current Irmscher parts through Vauxhall dealerships, just ask the parts department. Also, they will be cheaper from www.lmfvauxhall.co.uk

That your Coupe?

[lions67]

No mate, I Wish. Just got mine last week Its just a standard black 2.2. Think alot can be done to it though just ordered springs and grill. Desperate need of some wheels though. Bin looking at all my options for body kit but quite like the astra gsi bumper on it. Not so sure about the range of rear bumpers though some are a bit mental!

[SimonP]

There is indeed some nasty stuff about at the moment. I guess to cater for the people with a lack of taste.

Yup, GSi front bumper on the Coupe is one of the best things to do to them. Irmscher airdam is also quite nice.

[lions67]

Thats a nice front end. Is that a one piece bumper or an add-on to the standard one?

Also found these pictures when looking for kits.
