Hi all,

I have an Astra 'F' series (?) 1993 fitted with alloys that I want cleaning. 
Acquired some steel wheels off another astra so that I didn't have to rush.

It turns out that my alloys are 14inch and the steel wheel are 15inch, 
anyone know if the 'centres' are the same allowing me to use them or did I 
waste my time/money - if so, anyone want to buy some steel wheels with VG 
tyres :o)

TIA.

As they came from an astra there is a very good chance they will fit.
just try them on, if the studs are the right spacing and they don't flop 
around on the centre they will probably be fine, obviously check that they 
don't rub anywhere too.

Thanks, I was trying to be lazy and avoid jacking the car up if it was going 
to be a pointless exercise. Still, it'll give me something to do on Monday 
;)

You'll almost certainly be fine if the centres are the same size.

Thanks Mr. Cheerful and Duncan.

Only got round to it today but yes, they fit
