Hi everybody.

Have been spending a pleasant morning blagging some stuff for the TV project Corsa and have found some wheels I really like:

They're 7.5 x 17 ET 45 - I'm pretty sure they'll fit ok but I'm just a bit worried about how wide they are. Can anybody advise?

You can win a grille in the January issue of TV, which has been sliding around the boot for about two months cos it doesn't fit pre facelift cars.

They're not Compomotive but they are lightweight wheels.

Good stuff, looking forward to getting rid of the cack-tastic 15 inchers.

Nice, when they're lightweight they must've cost a pretty penny m8, better be carefull with them.

yeh they will be okay.

best to fit a 215/35/17" tyre and you wont have any probs.

:nono: 205 wide not 215. 215 can cause catching problems ;)

The standard Vauxhall ones don't. Definately not one of their better efforts. I'd rather have painted steels than those things.

Anyway, wheels in the post, Etyres are coming out to fit us up with some tyres outside the work when they arrive. Wonder what kind we'll get.

Wahey. They arrived today and look even better than in the picuture. They weigh just 7.3kg each too. Looking forward to getting these fitted with some top notch tyres. Goodbye half bald 185/55 Kumhos!!!
