No, sorry, even if the stud pattern is the same, the bore could be different. What do you intend doing?  ::)

Right, you will need the correct PCD Pitch Circle Diameter, most Vauxhalls will fit but you may have to correct the offset. There are quite a few Omega alloys about, try MarkeyMark or Loo Knee.
Also let people know where you are, and put up a wanted ad in "Parts for sale" section.

im the same as you as they are a PITA to line up especially as the miggy doesnt have studs to line up on, but with choice being as limited as it is its another option.
