Ok - so not advisable ?

Would it be better to buy the kit , sell the springs , and get some corsa springs ?

Surely that would be fine ?

Sorry, I'm too slow today. :lol: @ Drew not being me! Was doing a 'shop for another thread but it was naff.
Yeah a Nova kit will lower a Corsa by more due to a Corsa being heavier. So I'd imagine it'd rub unless u got pretty skinny ET49 16's.

lol i only asked him because i thought he had the same kit , cheers for ur answers :)

Is this a problem then ? I take it that because a corsa is heavier it will go lower , meaning wheels will rub ?

:(

IF the kit is a 60mm Kit off a Nova, it will lower a Corsa more than 60mm.

Dav , I might be buying the G-Maxx kit , but the previous owner has told me it was off his nova - will it still fit a corsa B ?

Yeah I'm fine with my car -60mm (full Gamx kit) and 16's (ET49)
Although it had rubbed on the passenger rear arch with 3 or 4 people in the car when it's ET44 (5mm spacers)

Will lowering -60mm on a full G-Max Kit , on 16s cause rubbing ?

How can I avoid this , and if it does end up rubbing , what can I do to stop it ? Arch bolts I know can be removed , but what else can I do , instead of getting it done by the pros .

Whats the best offset etc for no rubbing?

Cheers
