there will be mods needed, depends on the offset of your wheels. the best bet is to check out some specs of peeps cars then ask them. I have a mate the lowered 90 onto a set of 17's but that required major arch work. Corsa C's have a wider wheel arch so whould depend on model.

mine is lowered 60mm front and rear on 17s, ET39 i think. Front is fine, but it scrubs on the back sometimes, and thats with arches flared and arch liner bonded on not bolted.

Mine's dropped 60 and scrubbed like feck and handled like a brick with 17's on....went for 15's....doesnt look as good but handles 200% better!! Get the right offset, take arch bolts out and you should be ok tho
