It's still going to look like a sleeper to most people with thos wheels on. The average chav isn't going to know what wheels they are, only the sort of people who are interested in cars are going to be the ones who take notice. IMO

go for it mate, Daves corsa looks cool to the people who know about the 5 stud conversion to those who don't who cares.
my mates astra turbo also runs these wheels and a few people have asked, 'are they wheeltrims'

I was going to say that but wasn't sure, you've clarified it for me lol...
Wouldn't cost much to fit either if you can't do it yourself. It'd be the first thing on my list after the wheel/hub conversion.

I think they look good but its not a cheap option by the time you've altered the hubs.
hubs are the easy bit really, can buy them pre done from chris astley iirc
but depending on what setup's the shafts are, could cost a quite a bit..
if on motorsport style shafts, then just the new hubs pressed in, then rear disk convesion off a v6 cav(quite hard to find too) and hassle getting it to work correctly + v6 brakes up front, calipers, pad's and disks
if it's using gsi shafts's then you'll need :-
big shafts - conversion or equal lengh, the latter are better
cv's for shafts, possibley, if you buy new shafts etc
the hub's
new barrings
rear disk conversion kit
cav v6 rear hub
cav v6 rear disks and pad & shoes
cav v6 front calipers
cav v6 front disk's and pads
if on big shafts already it will cost around £200ish
if not probably cost £3-400, poss more,
then you need to buy the wheels and new tyres for them
