Ran 32F and 30R for years now and wear is superb.

On corsa B camber is not adjustable as standard but do a search on here as ive posted MANY times about it. As some may know im running Group A rally suspension on my Corsa with alloy eccentricated topmounts so everything is pretty much adjustable. When I ran Spax RSX coilovers dropped 60mm the camber was horrendous - if I remember rightly it was OVER 3 degrees negative which gives you piss poor handling and munches through the insides of your tyres like theirs no tomorrow!!

Im running 1 deg neg on my camber, 3 deg pos of caster and dead straight toe.

i had 35 F in mine, and 33 R, and it was skipping all over the road, so i let them down to 32 and 30, and its much better now (195/45/16)

Well TBH I found 28 to be perfect for my fronts but I give the outer edges a hard time on corners so upped the pressure somewhat to give the middle of the tyre a little bit more wear...

32 in my fronts and 34 in my rears fear (5door valver). Just play about with them fear and see what feels best. Somewhere between 28 and 36 is totally fine...
