    Default vectra alloy wheel help

    hi all i wonder if someone could help me out,ive been looking into buying some alloys for my car but cant make up my mind 18s or 19s i know bigger is better but once i buy the wheels i dont want to spend a fortune on tyres,so 18s seem a better choice for me the only thing is that my car isnt lowerd and once i spunk my hard earned cash on some wheels i wont be able to lower it for a while,will 18s look lost in the arches?also what other cars have the same fitment as vectras ive been offerd some audi 18s will these fit also seen some merc rims fitted to a vec on this site please help im confused

    Saab alloys will bolt straight on. Merc and Audi rims need wobbly bolts and I'm sure Merc rims need a bit of machining.

    Sorry mate, thats all I know. There are a few guys with Audi wheels on, try a search for Audi and see what it throws up.

    Bigger is not always better. Ride quality may be a lot harsher with bigger.
