I like that, nice car and a nice colour. I just got the 3.2 Elite; considering the recent road tax hikes I reckon a 2.2 TDI may have been a better bet.

Loving the wheels, I haven't seen those before, where are they from? What make are they and what size tyres do they take?

Do you know if that gives the same rolling radius as the standard 17" Elite wheels are on the facelift? or should I be looking at the other size of 265/30/19 as recommended above ^^

I might try to find myself a set of those wheels. There must be a set in a scrappy somewhere.

They do look incredibly good on your car. Do you mind me asking where you got them from? And if again you don't mind (perhaps a PM might be more appropriate) how much they set you back?

That IS a peach! Don't see many Irmscher DTi's. More piccies please!  :D

The wheels were also fitted to VXR astra H. I've often wondered what they'd look like on omega, fill the big arches nicely and alot of vectra/astra vxr owners are taking them off their cars to 'upgrade' to vectra vxr wheels. Can't believe none of you have seen them before!?! What wheels did it have originally mr elite?

I just parked next to a Signum with those wheels on in Tesco.

Gosh I want them.

Again, lovely car that Black Elite. Depite not liking the chrome surround for mine (I went Steinmetz on the grille) I think it sets the black car off perfectly. Very classy.

Post by: Albatross on 22 March 2008, 09:03:45
Are those wheels 19 x 7J, 8J or 8.5J ?

Also does anyone know what "J" the 2001 Elite 17" wheels are?

I'm just working out the correct tyre size I'll need to keep the rolling radius etc. as close as possible.

http://www.club80-90syncro.co.uk/Syncro_website/TechnicalPages/TRC%20calculator.htm

Is quite a good and simple "Tyre Calculator" with a nice simple set of explanations if anyone''s interested.

Which 19"s are you running?

What tyres do you have?

I just got back from checking in town and they're suggesting 235 x 35 x 19.

Oh, and do you find that the thinner rubber compromises the coveted Miggy cruisin' comfort much?

235/35 R19 is the closest, it'll be a firmer ride!

Hi Mark,

I got myself a set of these 19" snowflakes!!

Two of the wheels have virtually brand new tyres (Vreidestein 235x35x19) and I need two more tyres, I am thinking about putting the 265x30x19 the same as yours on the rear pair of wheels.

Do you mind me asking how much you pay for your tyres, what you use and where you get them from?

As usual i'm gonna stick my neck out & say i hate the wheels. Sorry but i think silly low profile tyres show too much wheel, the balance between rubber & alloy is way out & they just don't look right to me on any car. Gives the appearance of a cheap plastic toy from the £1 shop, too Vectra boy for my liking.
    However the rest of the car with the Irmy kit is spot on. The kit looks a treat, it's a well specced facelift in a gorgeous colour & although i'm probably the only one on here not to like the wheels, the car itself is a credit to you. Always good to see a clean well loved Mig. :y
