RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - stigeye - 14:th-Apr-2016

That's a really nice body kit, especially the front splitter. It would look really nice with some DNA taillights. How much more are you thinking of dropping it, top of tyres level with top or wheel arch, or even lower?

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - tucpal - 16:th-Apr-2016

loving this one very nice

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - opelastra - 18:th-Apr-2016

love the cars nice

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - sanj424 - 16:th-Aug-2016

Very nice clean, really like the stance on it as it is, but can go lower if you can get away with it depending on the roads you use.
What is the offset on those wheels both front and rear?

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - opelastra - 18:th-Aug-2016

love it cant wait to see what the duplex exhaust look like on your car!!!!

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - Mystic11 - 24:th-Aug-2016

Hi all, sorry for the late response.

@stigeye:
Lowering level need bit lower then the top of tires.
Don't know if it is possible for Daily but gonna try.
I bought the astra to have a car that can bring me everywhere, otherwise tis project is running out of hands to xD

@sanj424:
Need to check the offset on the delivery box of the wheel. Will post it saturday.

@ the rest

Thans for the comments.
Been long time of the forum because 2 days after my last picture post here I had a New accident. Took a while before I got my money from insurance because the guy that hit me also hit my wheel but ive seen it when I was back home. But the guy keeps saying it Can't be from the accident and blablabla.
Now the astra is fixed again. Rear bumper resprayed.
Still waiting for the New wheel getting delivered from Amerika.

Friday my Windows getting tinted
Rear 20%
Front 35%

Also ordered my New led taillight

When everything is ok after I got New wheel en insurance then the astra is ging down.

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - sanj424 - 28:th-Aug-2016

Thanks for the info on the wheel offsets. I have factory 18's at the moment, and thinking of changing wheels when my tires are due. Still thinking if going 19's is too much for everyday driving - my wife also drives it regularly. And I would have to get lowering springs too.

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - tucpal - 28:th-Aug-2016

Shame on the damage but I am still loving the look of the car

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - Kenny-R88 - 28:th-Aug-2016

nice car! Just one question, how come your pcd is 5x105? Always thought the 1.6t was 5x115?

RE: Mystic Astra 1.6T - Mystic11 - 29:th-Aug-2016

Yes correct... the shop weer I ordered the wheels made a mistake by ordering them in Amerika. But they have me a New set. The ET is the same normally cause wider then the original and to be wide as fender. Wil take picture when they are off car in winter.
