vauxhall astra mk3 sport steel wheels in Aberdeen | Wheel Rims & Tyres for Sale | Gumtree.com

Vauxhall astra mk3 sport steel wheels x5, rare, alloy look, 4 stud, would be good on Astra, Nova, Corsa etc. 4 have tyres but they need replaced, they are Toyo Proxes, they could still be used for a track day. Collection only.

Let me get this right. Wheels that come usually as spare wheels on Mk3 Astra's with buggered tyres for £120.

I do remember when they were in demand, but thought that phase died out a few years ago.
They also came on the 1.6 Sports I believe.

 

[Spinbitch]

Fcuk me I've got 2 of them in the back of the workshop with good tyres............50 quid each please!

 

[candy kane]

Nope. 1.7td sports only.

Mine must be worth a fortune with good toyo 45's on?

 

[Craig-S]

^ That is a joke by the way. Martin, you can still have them at billing if you want.

 

[Melv]

They were on 1.6 Sports too Craig.

Glad that was a joke too :thumb:

 

[Craig-S]

Really? Never seen a 1600 with them on. Although i was only basing that on a couple of TD's in my area to be honest. Most 1600's have been chav'd up anyway.

Yes Martin they are yours. I just need to sort a set of comps out for billing as they are all different colours at the moment. Still not sure wether to go with 15's or 16's.

 

[Melv]

Yeah, best I can find online is this but it's hardly a Vauxhall spec list :lmao:

15s are plenty on a Nova. Cheaper tyres too.

 

[Craig-S]

Maybe.... we'l see.

Whoever buys the wheels above might want this ARB too. Its a bargain

No it didn't.

I've the brochure here and it had 14" steels with wheeltrims.

 

[kwkmanta]

Well i knew two lads who bought them new and both came with the 15" steelies as we used to take the piss out of them.Might have just been a dealer thing tho as they both bought them from the same place.I just assumed they all had em.

I went trawling one weekend around a few scrapyards, and found four for 40 pounds.

I always assumed they only came with Astra mk3 Sport models, but they actually came with the phase 2 cars with these alloys wheels:

The centre caps fits straight onto the spare wheel. I love them, I even got a spare. They came with Michelin Energy 195/45 tyres which are low profile enough for a 15" to fit in the spare wheel well.

 

[Melv]

Exactly. My set came to about the same.

Yeah, they came as spares in a few different models in the Mk3 range. Most of the phase 2's with alloys. my old 1.8 sport had one as a spare and the phase 2 GSi had them too.

Standard fit tyres were 195/55/15.

 

[Craig-S]

I have been using them for years too. They come as a spare with any MK3 Astra and Tigra which comes with 15" alloy wheels, bar the ph1 GSi.

+ in full sets of 5 on the odd 1.7td and 1.6 sport (if not specified otherwise)

 

[Craig-S]

Probably a typo, but they came with 195 / 55's with the Astra and 185 /55's with the Tigra
