There are two types of Vectra B SRi wheel - older type, which are 15".

Also seen on Tigras and Calibras although I think the fitment is slightly different. These are a five nut here because the car is a V6. 2 litre also has 5 nut. 1.8 has 4.
Newer type of wheel, which are 16" - older car - this one is a 1998 1.8, hence 4 nut. These are the ones that you want.

But not all 1.8 are 4 nut.
This one is a facelift B 1.8 2002 on a 51 and has 5 nut.

I would suspect those in the auction are 16. They look small because the tyres are massive and won't suit a Corsa.

The early 1800 vectras are small block hence the 4 stud
later versions are big block engines so they have 5 stud
