Just to let you lot know, astra sport 15" steelies dont fit over v6/turbo brakes, without a little skim off the caliper! lol

As i found out today.

Sorry Jack i dont, shaved it away down Dads work, right in the edge of the caliper, you dont have to shave alot off at all, not even a mm.

Good gen.

Might try one of those alloys off my Astra on my 284 brakes to see if they clear with part worn pads
