I think you'll be able to go to about 30 - 40 mm with just springs, any lower and i think you'll need springs and dapmpers. | |

What about lowering then? | |

the 16" wheels that come on the Sri (which i've got) are ET40, and there looks like there's plenty of room, they also stick out nicely because of the 9mm less offset. | |

if they are the correct offset then they'll fit perfectly, u2u him to find out the offset | |

It should look fine mate, i've got a Corsa C Sxi with the 16" Sri wheels wich have 195/45 tyres, and it seems quite low, your Sri will be slightly lower than mine and with lower profile tyres should be about the same height off the ground. I know that everyone is going to post and say it needs to be lowered otherwise it'll look like a 4x4, but i honestly dont think it will. The best aftermarket alloys for a Corsa C IMO are Masitaly VT7, they are available in 17" and 18" but the 17's look like 18's, and the 18's look like 19's due to the shape of the front of them. I think with tyres you're looking at around £650 - £700 for 17's delivered. | |

Well, I have decided to bite the bullet and buy myself some 17" alloys in the not so distant future! |
