Is it my imagination or are these available in a larger size than the 14"s I currently have?
I saw some on a German bus in France this summer and they looked bigger than mine, unfortunately it had gone before I had a chance to have a proper look.

Yep, 15" are available.
They are really really really really REALLY rare though :)

I drove to Germany for mine just to get them, ran them as winters and then flogged em. Wish I'd kept them now, but hey ho...

They are really cool, nice and subtle.
Shame they're so rare I'd love a set as I think my 14"s don't really fill the arches

 adaptors would push them too far out
the only real way would be a pcd redrill.

'Pitch circle diameter (PCD) is the diameter of a circular component that is to be manufactured, which usually has holes drilled into it. For example, the circle which is drawn through the centre of the bolt holes of a wheel. PCD is measured in millimetres, and often indicates the number of bolts the wheel will have.'

So 5 x 120 = 5 bolt holes in 120mm diameter circle. You'd re-drill in the spaces between the 5 existing holes at 5 x112, ally welding the old holes up. ET would stay the same. Thumbs Up

ah right over here its lochkreis...i guess if you then paint them jobs a fish! Get them "sniped" €250 i don't see them going for more than that esp without tyres

i picked up a set of melbers from stuttgart yesterday, black- chrome rims without the merc logo...these were the ones made for the T3 proper bo....i dunno if they are around too much in UK over here they are like "hens teeth"


i just googled "opel monza" says the lochkreis is 5 x 110 so it must be a misprint also that the lochdurch messe is 12mm for the studs

whereas the t3 is 13.5 does this put a new light on a redrill?

if they are 5x110  and do not have steel inserts then a good machine shop should be able to correct the pcd.
 
but im not sure on the older opel pcd´s. but im sure i have seen one with 5x120 listed as the pcd.
