You are not very clear aren't you just putting spacers on the drums at the back to bribg the wheels out or use wider wheels and 20 inches each side ? Thats ridiculous what's the kit?

The shocks won't be too short... The springs will be too long a set of lowerring spring will lower the car so the wheels for in the arches or alternatively fit coilovers so you can adjust them. Don't get why you are moving the mounts as the shocks will still be in the same place it's just the arches you have changed

because already put on corsa b wide rear arch quarters, the proper ones and need to re-do the arches anyway so could do the inner too . so wont be able to use corsa b mounts because the shock will be too short then as arches are gettin bigger..

no. i need to know what rear shocks of what car would fit on the bottom mount of corsa b axle..

top mounts dont matter , because the old inner arches will be shopped off and welded in again, when i find the compatible rear shocks that could fit on the bottom ...

Hello
Wondering, what other rear struts would fit on corsa b axle ?

Top mount isnt important. all i need is something that can be bolted to the bottom ? as top mounts will get cut off and welded on new arches .. ?
