Wanted, spare wheel for '01 3.0 elite
03. Feb 2011 at 20:06
 
Ok, first use of spare wheel today, and it don't fit  Angry

Not the right wheel for the car, & rubs on the brake caliper..... so I have a perfectly good 15" tire on a a useless wheel  Embarrassed

Anyone got the right one for sale? Assume it's a 15" space saver steel, as it fits in the hole quite well, and my alloys are 17's....

Grrrrrrrr!!!

Unless I'm totally wrong (nothing new there) if so, info and item for sale would be good!

Ta all

Cant vouch for Facelifts but all previous Omegas have 15" spare wheels...to be honest I dont think they would have changed it for facelift as its the same basic design...perhaps someone has stuck a spare wheel from a Vectra in it or upgraded the braking system somehow???

I have a brand new 15" spare here from a 2000 elite £35 delivered...depends if its what you need or not Thumbs Up!

I think you may be right- it looks astraish.... and the brakes are original I'm told
Is def a 15", or so the tire says, so that would make sense if the mig 15" is larger internally than the whatever-I've-got.

Sound like a deal, PM me your paypal email, I'll gift it over to you.

Many thanks
