The Astra needs meaty wheels like the Fox RS UDT, now I hear you say that Fox are cack, but these are quite nice rims.

I was thinking about getting the 19" Irmscher GT Star alloys, would suit the coupe down to T. Only problem is they are about £1300, and I wouldn't want to risk handling problems/speed reduction.
At the moment I am looking for some 2nd hand 18" OZ Superturismo's in anthracite.

Good options Davido, don't you think 19's over power the car Patrick?

I think Davido has the right idea, I dont think i've seen many aftermarket wheels that suit the Coupe very well, they tend to make the car look cheaper.

Probably slightly, but I was originally thinking 19's for the street (I rarely boot it anymore anyway) and a set of 16's or originals for the strip/track.

Im going for 19's on my hatch asap...
19's on a coupe will be right at home.
Depends if you want to retain some driveability and comfort.

fox are made by OZ, they arent actually all that bad, they just have a cheap name and some of the designs are dubious
