    the tyre size is wrong, the 215/35 18 is for the astra. For the vectra you need 225/40 18 which is only 13mm out from the factory 17" or bizzarely enough 225/45 18 which is what Vauxhall recommend (but is 22mm out??? mad)

    Sounds right to me, but I'm no tyre expert. I'm sure that's the same profile size Abyss has on his car now and he has 18's on.

    Edit: I've just looked at what the profile is on my 19's. It's 35, so Andy is right mate, you'll probably need a larger profile tyre.
