Not that I have any cash at the mo, but if anyone has/sees/knows of a cheap set of 16" alloys for my Vectrbus, please gimme a yell?

I guess RWD ones would fit, but not sure how the Vectra would handle!

Having said that, it would only have a slightly wider track, wouldn't it?

you cant use rwd wheels on a front drive car as they arent designed to cope with the rotational and turning forces at the same time pete (the centres rip out over time)


iirc it is actually an offence (but this isnt gospel) somat like driving a car that is unfit for the road

I think the centre bore is smaller on rwd, but not 100% sure, although I know someone on here had a set of "Viennese Whirls" wheels on a Carlton.
