As you may know i have a 2006 Vectra Facelift Estate..
Im looking at getting a set of 19s (maybe 20s but think they might be too big)..
Seen in TV this month a Veccy on 20s which looked pretty smart but needed to be lower. dont think it could have gone much lower on those wheels though.
Now i know alot of peeps will say either the snowflake or VXR wheels but i want to get something different.
Was looking at Kahn RSV 2pc.. or TSW Jarama..
basically i want a nice chunky wheel. with a split rim that would suite a black veccy estate. want to cover the car in Irmy and jdltuning goodies to make it look really smart.
help please

Also don't you do quite a lot of miles in it for work?
wide sticky rubber won't help your economy.

That is a point, 18"'s would be more eco/wallet friendly

VXR 19"s in the only thing I'd put on a Vectra.
Or those Irmy ones in 19" that Stavs had on his B - Signas?

I'm not a fan of aftermarket wheels at all.
Especially on expensive cars like Vectra's
