Howdy! I'm thinking of putting alloys on the Tomasti-mobile, but I'm on a budget so I've decided they'll be s/h Vauxhall ones and in 15" for a mk2.

Which Vaux alloys do you lot reckon look the best on and where and about what price do u reckon i should pay?

Sound!

lol. Yeah, the tigra ones look nice, and the new Astra's SRi 16" rims are pretty awesome. But I expect they'll be a small fortune to pick up at the mo.

they never seem to have much TBH ade.

they buy the cars of insurance companies etc and alloys are usually took off before they go there apparently

they hardly EVER have any aftermarket alloys second hand.

as for vaux alloys they do have some, but they ent had a set id buy yet lets put it that way!

all horrible styles.

i wont name any cos i know someone is bound to have em on here! just they wont fit my styling theme shall we say :lol: :P

These I gotta say look pretty good on nova's... just need low profiles tho.
