Provided they fit under your wheels, they should fit fine.

yea, make sure you have big enough wheels, standard nova gsi wheels are too small, the calliper wont fit uner it.

,
and also lxi wheels from an astra mk2-3

yer the brakes fit fine, BUT watch your fingers when putting your wheels back on, i caught my fingers between the wheel and caliper. you dont want to do that!

Depends which 14s they are, some fit, some dont.
My old 14s wouldn't.

Depends on the width of the wheel, they won't fit under a 5J GSi 14" 3 spoke, I'm not sure if they go under a 5.5J steelie, but they do go under a 6J or bigger alloy iirc
