Very Cool, although I think you should paint the centre badge outline silver maybe?

Look pretty sweet, though would be better in silver or with the badge painted in.

The colour of the wheels is Graphite Grey which is a little lighter than in the pics. For some reason they've uploaded darker than what the should be

porsche wheels have a very high offset, like 50 odd, so adding adaptors is like...20mm? brings it down to a very nice vauxhall friendly euro offset.

i like them, they work with the van, not so sure banded steelies are gonna work tho, only like them on old veedubs.

They look awesome. A polished lip would make them perfect. I can appreciate all the work that went into smoothing the bootlid but i still think a back window would look much better on it.

You're right Martin. The fronts are ET 62 and rears Et 52. The adapters are 20mm thick, so i can get them to fit.

Phil, buy these, as i don't think they'll be staying on too long. 16's are too big, i prefer 15's, but we'll see when the steels arrive.

Transit vans don't have back windows!
