Do you have any clearance problems at the moment? Whats it like with more than one of you in the car. They are TSW evo-r's on your corsa aren't they? Look pretty sweet. I want some Mille Miglia Evo's. 15s are alot cheaper than 16s. If i lower it then it should look ok with 15s. Have you just got lowering springs or the dampers aswell?

Thanks

Chris

I have 15" rims on mine with a 60mm drop, looks alright to me, the thing is if I went onto 16's I would have just enough clearance to get ove the speed bumps at a more decent speed.

15's dont look too small if they are on a lowered car, 16's are a slightly better size yet the tyres are more expensive for 16's than they are for 17's because they are less popular.

go 16's lowered 60mm looks mint every says u need 17's but i actually went from 17's to 16's as the ride was bad u easily buckle 17's, decrease performance, i got full bodykit 2 and my 16's still look big go 4 it:thumbs:

plus 16's wont affect performance

I am in need or your opinions. Would 15" wheels or 16" wheels be better for my corsa B. I don't really want to lose much performance, but on the other hand, would 15's look stupid as they are too small. Either case, it would need to be lowered i guess?, just wondered if anyone could give me a few ideas on wheel size and lowering (how much mm, whats the best kit).

Thanks very much
