Hey guys,
Firstly, I live in ireland where the roads are a disaster most of the time, potholes everywhere, ad im not talking about little dents in the surface, I mean full on craters, so keeping rubber on 18"s or 19"s would litterally cost as much as a decent car in a year or two, not to mention the cost of replacing broken wheels , so its 17"s all the way for me.

where did you guys get your snowflakes??been looking around and cant find anywhere that sells snowflakes or replicas in 17", although wouldnt mind the ones in the following links in a 17" either,

There are some astra vxr alloys on e-bay in a 17" but not sure if they would fit, I assume they would but ya never know.

Which do you guys rather, the snowflakes or the other vxr ones in the links???

Are replicas a bad investment?? the astra snowflakes on ebay are not that dear, although they could be in bits with cracks and fractures everywhere.
