Thanks guys....its sounds just as good as it looks. I'm hoping to get a vid soon, but my camera isn't good enough. May have a vid from a run through the tunnels at Manchester Airport soon though!

They are the 19" optional upgrade wheels, but tbh hardly anyone has the standard 18's these days so most VXR's have these. They used to come in plain silver but on the newer Astras they are 2 tone diamond cut like mine.

So far i've found it handles so much better, but that may be due to the RARB too. The front does seem rock hard though, but they still need time to run in properly.

Looks good mate, the trouble with the Sportlines is that it gives the car a nose down stance rather than the level stance that the DAP's do, and a fair few people have complained that once the Eibachs soften up they get quite crashy & noisy.

Something to watch out for I suppose.

Yeah...although the astras have a nose down stance as standard anyway. I nearly went for DAPs but thought i'd give these a whirl first. I've heard about them going bangy etc but i've also heard people run them for ages and have no probs.....i'll see how it goes.
