I prefer the standard gsi wheels to be honest. Its the only thing really that makes it stand out from a normal astra.
Agree about the wheels making it look like an sri.

That would look ace. Better than the RS-S IMO but either would look good

Kahn Alloys are made of very soft alloy though and are prone to warping and denting easily.
Just a friendly warning for ya

Seen it on quite a few forums of the alloy failing or denting very easy.
