They appear to be MV6 alloys, six spoke, 17". There were two styles of alloys fitted to FL MV6s, mine has those ones and is an 02, I think they are the later ones.

Also fitted to the 2.2 sport as shown in your pic - basically an MV6 look 2.2 IIRC.

They're also found on Astra Turbo's too, and will possibly be 17".

Or the Astra Turbo have the 5 spoke instead of the 6 spoke....

Different size - Astras are FWD so the offset is all wrong. :y

Have they got a "proper" name then ?   On here they seem to be known as "late Elite/MV6  17" alloys"   although as said they were also fitted to other "late" models, namely the 2.2 sport Omega   :-\ 

You after a set then ? ::) ::)

 ;D ;D must type faster  ;D ;D
