Hi all. What are the biggest wheels you can fit to the Astra j 2.0cdti SRI,bear in mind the Astra sri is lower than other models. I have the 225/50/17" atm. I'm currently looking at 235/40/19" do you think they would start to rub with luggage in the boot? These are the ones I'm looking at . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172216806345 they said they would come with 235/40/19 tyres thanks.

Hi, I have an sri VX-line and from factory it comes with 235/40/r19 so you'll have no problem putting them on your car, in fact you could probably go for 20" if you're feeling brave.

The Sri vx line comes with that exact size so should be perfect.

[Image: 5a122c0dedb3c854848a47082438c1c0.jpg] those are the vx line wheels in that size. I like the vxr replicas as well in 19 inch.

Those wheels have been put on numerous J's, mostly in Turkey as it has a more established modding scene. The offset is 42 which is fine and width is 8.5J which is the same as genuine 20" VXR alloys.
