that they are kyle!!!

the astra should have come with them on as standard, although yours is a S reg right? so it wouldnt have had them.....

make sure if ya gonna lower it you user shockers and springs (or coilovers!) cos the ride sucks on just springs!!!

i'd go for the ones kyle posted images of if ya can get em, there sweet and rare too!

Get some bigger rims theres way to much rubber on them. You'll feel the better handling if you do.

If poss get some springs as well there only about 100-150 for some decent ones and about 100 fitting max.

id go for some that are at least 17" mate or you'll only be swapping them in a few months Icon_smile

If it means waiting and saving.. then wait and save!

Will be worth it in the end! Icon_smile

Are you needing to stick with Vauxhall. There plent of nice cheap aftermarket wheels out there.

I'm into the chrome lip and black wheels at the minute (like Dans for example), I recon that style would look good on your red car.

Then maybe lower it a little bit but not too much.
