you will need to butcher the arches, but if your getting a wide arch kit then this should be no probs for the body shop

you should ask the other widebody corsa owners on here what offset wheel they use

ask beardy

then you'll be fine, get him to cut the std arches back then spot weld them again, and make sure you plaster the cut & welded area with rust preventer

Ne1 on here got 18s on their Corsa? Just wana kno sum of the problems that i mite com across. Highest offset i can get 18s in is 42, the wheels im afta com in 40 at the highest. The bloke reckons they will go on cos of the wide arch mods im havin. Can easily av the archs rolled wen car is in bodyshop neway. 5mm aint a lot at the end of the day wen im havin the mods dun 2 archs. Just want few professional opinions if poss.
Cheers ppl
