I want a set of Euro style wheels but i can only find them in stupid offset.
Anyone know of anywhere that stocks a range of "euro" wheels in an even close Vauxhall offset?

Thats the whole point of the Euro look the offset is always wrong thats how they get the look. im not sure the full Euro look and setup is really ok for day to day driving

if you get like 8x14, you have to have a lower offset, because the rim i wider. If you get it in af ET 49, the rim would catch on the shocks...

they can supply a set of RH Cup alloys in 8*14 with ET30 and ET 20.
that's the closer to ET49 you will find...
and btw they speak english and are able to trade with U.K.customers ;-)

can you not get wheels machined to different/more sensible offsets?

you can get away with 38, but will need lots of arch work and uber stiff suspension, also the handeling will start to suffer. didnt vaux girl have et38 lowered 60mm on her green c20xe corsa?
