Had the astra a few months now.

I cant decide on weather i like how it looks or not.

I have a distinct fetish for standard wheels. I think seeing as their are only 15 of these changing the wheels is actually possibly a sin.

Just want to change the rear lights and the wheels

From:


To these wheels:




Bearing in mind mine is lowered 50mm front and 30mm rear so wont look like a skyboat...

Inspiration (and lights) come from Byrons old one (old bean )



Seen these too which look extremely sexual, but would involve making wheels larger and im not keen on the idea of 18"s and more expensive tyres and shitty ride quality. But it does look noice




Opinions please

Standard wheels, and the lights which should have been standard, definitely, not the mock VXR wheels.

Wheels look immense as they are. Get the rear lights like the black one... or smoked ones? And get the mirrors colour coded!

IMO.

The black wheels dont look bad. The original wheels look, well, more respectable
