Picked up sum vectra gsi 17s for very very cheep before so spent the afternoon messin about with then   
They wont actually be goin on the car till they have been referbed, resprayed rover gun metal, and had sum smaller 205/40 tires put on to them, so may b a 2 or 3 week wate depending how lazy i am 
here they are, oh n let me tell you 235,45 tires do not fit on a lowerd corsa c 1 bit 




 

let me no what you think

suit yourself 
they do look alright, just look big. i think it's because of the thick 5 spokes rather than lots of thin spoke 17's like i'm used to seeing on c's.
