no peugeot is not similar to corsa,

peugeot is similar to ford,

err any Vauxhall 4stud alloys will have the correct PCD, (eg, nova, astra) there are other PCD100 wheels i think Fiat are PCD 100 but mostly ET35 (used 2 have fiat rims on ma nova)

Peugeot is 4x108 I think.

The only wheels that will fit Corsas is Vauxhall ones. Even if you get 4x100 the offset is always far too low - Honda, Renault etc. No good.

Centre bore will be wrong as well, you'll need spiggots etc., no no no.

205 is the width of the rim, 50 is the profile of the tyre and 15 is the alloy size.

Yup fiat have a pcd of 98
