ive just had a right stupid thought - astra gte = 2litre! :roll: :oops:

BUT

will they fit as i dont know if the ATE 16v brakes as commonly used on nova conversions were both on the 8v and 16v astras you see.

cheers

tbh as soon as i thought u plonka = astra gte has 2 litre engine!

just wanted confirmation as i didnt know wether 8v and 16v had different brake setup - but if you say yes ill take that as gospel :D

they fit most 14" alloys, just not the nova 3 bar alloys without a bit of work+spacers.
