would these fit my 2.6 CDX Without having to do any mods and would they stick out past the arches?

Need to know the PCD & the size of the centre hole

[v6power]

PCD ?

[mantagte]

apparently you tell them what car its for they send you the correct wheels for your car

[greenfingers 79]

why would you want to?
keep the wheel money and buy a decent motor! lol

[RobG]

PCD ?

PCD stands for (pitch circle diameter) and is the diameter of a circle drawn through the centre of your wheels bolt holes. PCD is measured in millimetres and also indicates the number of studs or bolts the wheel will have.
Omega is 5 x 110 PCD, Offset is 35-38 & bore is 65.1

pcd is same so ok... offsets wont be big problem.. (omega 35-38 offset, astra 35-45 ) .. but imo wheels are something special that you need to see near the car  :-/

also I would personally recommend spending the budget for better tires on a smaller size like 17 or 16..  :-/

Yep, they will fit, even the bore is the same. I do agree that they need to be on the car before deciding though, photoshop perhaps?

Thanks for all the replys iam now thinking of spending a bit more and just getting the wheels and then a set p0s or similar what would be the tyre of choice with a tyre budget of about £500-550

remember both p0 and potenzas need a bit warm up period for full grip..   p0, potenza (potenza and p0 could be a bit more noisy) and conti are all ok..

contis 225/55-17 145£

potenzas 225/55 or 50-17  around 150£


and stay away from falkens   (for you chrisgixer)

[2woody]

for a 17" wheel, your acceptable tyre sizes are :-

215/50 x 17
235/45 x 17
245/45 x 17

but do check that each of these tyre sizes are compatible with your rim width.

Not sure the offset will be correct for omega as the Astra is front wheel drive which uses a differant offset I believe. 

I run 18' with 245 35 18 tyres with no problems, but yours are differant offset again although the ad doesn't specify afaict.

There have been reports on here that p zero tramline quite badly on the omega. So avoid them and falkens and you should be fine.
Conti Any Dunlop ESP good Ime. Not cheap in those sizes though.

why ? whatever the size difference, it can be arranged with tech 2

however, I would prefer 215 55 16
