My Astra VXR

Well I ordered my VXR back on May 6th 2005 and here is a short picture diary leading up to delivery and just after :D
These first two pictures were taken by Louise AKA Miss VXR the day after delivery to the dealer. Thanks again Louise. :)

10 out 10 yep we live on part of the Rowley Hill.
Cars always in the garage, might catch me on the weekends but only if your in your VXR :wink:

Personally, although both are nice cars, I much prefer the ST! 8)

HI
COULD YOU DO ME A BIG FAVOUR AND MEASURE ACROSS THE DISTANCE FROM ONE SIDE OF YOUR TYRE TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE TYRE(ACROSS THE MIDDLE)AS I AM ON THE BRINK OF BUYING A SET OF THESE 19 INCH VXR ALLOYS FOR MY ZAFIA GSI AND I JUST WANT TO CHECK IF THESE WILL FIT INSIDE MY ARCH AS THE LOCAL VAUXHALL DEALERS ARE NOT SO HELPFUL WITH ME
THANKS
PETER

Peter as far as ia m aware the vxr alloys should fit no probs as they are also an option on the zafira so i don;t see any probs with them fitting

[Sparky]

For your info the 19 and 18 have different offsets. 19 (i think) are 43 and the 18 are 38

[Aussie]

18's offset are 39

[too-fast]

18's offset are 39
I thought they where 37 :P i have a new set of wheels coming this week and had to take 38mm offset ahh well im sure they will be ok 8)
