Finished my wheels last weekend and got them fitted. Pictures dont show it too well but they are Vauxhall Diamond Black (metallic) look alot better in the flesh.
Few random shots thrown in for good measure

fair enough mate, thought they were rare didnt know they were that rare tho, must have took a fair bit of searching to find,
If you dont mind me asking how much do they sell for?

well there were 500 DTM's in total, and of that 500, 22 were Turbo's and 31 were V6's.
ive never seen another DTM Turbo for sale so there isnt really a general price that they sell for.

Looks better than I thought it would. I they the standard alloys.
IMHO, if it was 1 of 22 made, I'd want to not change a thing, but that is MHO.

yeah, phase 1 Vectra GSi alloys.
the standard wheels are being refurbished and kept to one side, but i couldnt deal with keeping the white wheels clean, plus i wanted 17's to fill the arches a bit more so thats why i put these on.
its not having any other mods, and the wheels are removable in half an hour to put the car back to totally standard as and when/if i want to.

Fair play. White wheels must be bit of a ball ache.
