I have TSW razor alloys, apparently ET38, lowered 60mm, scrapes like fcuk over any bump, have taken all bolts ou tof rear arches too :!

ive got TSW multis on mine, 19s too

i have tsw alpines. vintage, classic design that makes the corsa look mean

i got tsw venoms et 38 they look good because there in line with the arche but i think it makes handling a bit shit.

IMO dont pay over £500 for some TSW's!!!!

i got tsw's et 37 and and lowered 40mm minor mods to arch yay!!!

Speedlines:

i was originally looking at heat but they are onli et 40 so i thought about warrior which are et 42 and £430 cheaper than some of the other et 42's and more expensive than the et40's.....which wheels you have that are et 45?

i didn't have any problemo at all....none of the above...

just get the correct offset and your done...btw which tsw are looking at?

i've sold mine and is now on et45...even better...so take your time and get the correct wheels so that when coming to lowering, there's no problem at all :)

thats brillaint, thanks for your help!!
but one last thing, did you have n e trouble with the centre caps fitting on over that big bolt behind them and do they rub when takin corners fast ?

cheers

ET is the offset...the best fit would be ET49

The offset of a wheel is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel.




the higher the offset (nearing et49) the better and also lesser chance of scrubbage when lowered:thumbs:

anything from et42 would be ok...I did not do any arch work :thumbs:

ideal would be between et45 and et49

nice, any arch wrk need doin and can you explain to me what the et acctually is? like whats the difference between 40 and 42? chhers

tsw pace on a corsa b:




i had them, were et42 on low profile tyres (195/45/15) and lowered 50mm:thumbs:

you do, are they old ? what model and size?

I have TSW's in ET49.

i just been on the phone to rtec and they say that i need 42 offset and you cant buy 49 any more and that i need 195/45/15 rather than 195/50/15 and all this makes the wheels i need to get £529.99 when the ones i originally wanted were only £299.99 which were TSW et 40's with the tyre size of 195/50/15 but for an extra 30 quid i could get 195/45/15. rtec then said that TSW's dont fit corsa's as they have a big nut in the centre of the wheel that sticks out a lot and there centre caps do not fit over them all the time. someone please tell me what i should do as i want to lower my car as well, not spend it all on wheels!any one had any expeiriance with TSW's on a corsa b4?
