did the astra expression not have lx rims, the starmist, jubilee and diamond had 5.1/2j 13 steel rims the same as the rims on the nova sport ( only sport rims are 5j 13).

EPC dont help, not enough detail in the pics.

Does it matter, put them on your car and say you have alloy wheels from a vauxhall..

12-08-10, 04:17 PM
