i,ve got a 1996 1.4 16v sport without power steering and i'vw got 17's on it. If anythin the steering went lighter when i put them on and it wasn't that heavy to start with so it's ok. | |

i got 17 x 7 on my 1.2, with a smaller steering wheel as well, not really a problem, exept you get a lot of tram lining. | |

if u put 18's on a non powerstearing corsa would find ureself in alot of bother, u could barely put 16's on it. either u start pumpin the weighs or go for sumthing realistic. | |

i thought mine stayed the same with wider wheels. although they are wider there is less pressure on them | |
