I had 15" et42 voodoo's on my nova, then sold them and got vaux et49 16's, the handling improvement was very noticable, even with the bigger wheels. It just to tramline quite badly before, doesn't at all now. | |

quote: Never had any problems with handling on mine, nor any problems with excessive tyre-wear or anything! If anything, the handling was a great improvement over standard & the twisties gave me no problems at all! quote: Only replaced the off-side rear bearing within the last 12 months, rest are fine! And have done near 20k miles since fitting the alloys & lowering the car 60mm | |

Why anyone would want et38 whether they physically fit or not is beside me. They will screw handling and wear out bearings. They will also look silly! | |

i had some OZ Saturn wheels on my old corsa B in et38 and they were completely fine until i lowered it. Then they scrubbed on medium bumps and with people in the back. | |

Ok I had a few people now asking me about ET38 alloys (15's), and saying people are telling them they WON'T fit on a corsa at all, no matter what you do! |
