Indeed, friend of mine from golspie got his astra burg with the 19" vxr wheels rather than the white multispokes, looks far better.

I think I have seen one posted up on here before like that looked 
Multispokes dont look that good but its function over form I guess

the artic is not that nice in the flesh and is very boomy with the exhaust
If they did the VXR standard in white I would have had it

Wheels look shit, but it's a special edition and therefore requires the special edition wheels.
They are ATS wheels and are light as feck, much lighter than the 19's and serve a purpose, drive one with 19's then drive one with the ATS wheels and tell me you don't notice a difference.
Good choice Whitter, and pleased you tried both the Clio & the Corsa before choosing. To live with everyday the Corsa certainly wins hands down.

the finish on the clio inside just isnt up to the corsa. Plus 800 notes for the recaros that are in the corsa as standard
the new 09 wheels look nice too

Bet you can't wait for it to arrive. I really liked them when I worked for a Vaux garage.
Partners is a good deal. Which level do you get?
