    Default Steel wheels.

    Hi guys. I've a facelift Sri estate. Come the winter, I want to fit some snow tyres. With cars in the past, I've used steel wheels and stuck to rim and tyre size the same as with the standard alloys. What's the biggest steel wheel size available for the Vectra?

    Yes mate, your calipers are the same size as base models with steel rims.

    Winter tyres
    Waste of time, invest in a small freezer and food instead

    As said, snow tyres are a waste of money mate. If anything get THESE, keep them in the boot and pop on if needed.
