Vectras have always been 5 stud. 5/110mm PCD.
Astras were 4/100mm PCD. Same off-set as Camira but centre bore is 56.5mm to the Geminis 57mm.
Around 2000, Astras changed to 5/110mm PCD. |

| i bought a set of astra mags for my gemmy from bob jane in brissy when they were having their sale. yes they do fit, the front offset i havent had any dramas with, but the back ones needed a 6mm spacer on each side to bring it out a bit. oh, and with drilling out the front hubs, my trick is to get yourself the biggest drill bit that you have and twirl it round on the inside until it has sufficient space. |
