Thanks for your thoughts. The corsa has a Jap/ Samurai kit, with 15" alloys, and was lowered 60mm at the front, 40 at back (springs on original shocks). After 2 years of no-go speed humps, scrapes and bashes I put it back onto standard springs, and had my front end resprayed new. | |

Some 16"s can look OK on Corsas, namely Speedlines :P but usually 15"s are big enough, you can't deny that 17"s make it look like a monster truck/joke thing | |

17"s are ridiculously big for a Corsa, 15"s are plenty big enough. | |
