they are BBS RXII's
Rimstyle have them advertised, but im not sure if you can still buy them
They also came on the MK4 Astra Edition 100's in 17" as in the picture- see Ian's garage pictures.
You can also get them in 16's off of Calibra DTM's.
They are not cheap to buy new from Vauxhall

and just to let you know, the car pictured (davey jacks) was not drivable with the 17's on that are pictured as i think the offset was too low
and ive also just realised that the edition 100 astra wheels wont be 4 stud

they are 17" IIRC the ones of a calibra are 16" (see jamesvalvers garage)
That car is THE sexsiest corsa around.
But also IIRC its rubbed like a bitch and he took the wheels off

these are the 16" ones off of a Calibra DTM, and yes Jamesvalver has some of them on his corsa at the minute.

if the ones you are looking at are proper BBS's it will be cast on to them along with the size, offset and name of the style on them.
