hi peeps
my dad has a mk3 astra van and i want to change his wheels as it currently has some horrible looking steele's on and i think there looking a bit aged. My dad has the wheels left over from his 1.6 Peugeot 205 GTI and i want to know if they will fit. I had not looked at the sizes of either set of wheels of the tyres that are fitted to them. The van hasnt been lowered and is still running on standard suspension so will the wheels be able to fit
thanks

Also depends on off sets, otherwise, you could try wobbly bolts.

ok i will have a look today and put down the tyre sizes of both and then well see if they can fit or not. Also if they don't fit what work would need doing to make them fit ??

well me and my dad have been looking at gsi bodykits to add to his van to make it a lot better looking so maybe we should look for some other wheels to add as the peugeot wheels would look a little bit odd.
So i am now open to any ideas of which wheels to add and bear in mind that i don't have a fortune to spend !!

those fan alloys off the cavalier sri should be cheap and look good on a mk3 astra

i think that this is a lovely idea and i have found a few cheap on pistonheads and various other websites but i have just realised that those alloys are 5 stud whereas as far as i know all astra's have 4 studs so these alloys will not fit my dads van so im still open to ideas people

It's a standard Astra van, yes?

Use it as a van to make some money instead of wasting money on alloys and a body kit. Why does it need them?

Then buy a car.

It's not that difficult really.

hi
thanks for the comment but unlike some of you in my dads line of work he needs a van and we are fed up of it looking like a tramp mobile. the paint is recked it has steelee's on and the bodywork i looking dated as the bumpers arents even clour coded.
So thank you for your opinion but the van is staying and we are going to modify it
thanks
