Yes take the wheel off, look on the inside and somewhere it will say ET 45 or something similar.

45-49 would be best for minimal arch work really. 49 is the Corsa Offset.

nice1, cheers joe.

im just trying to guess if my rear arches will rub when i drop it 30mm. the alloys should be 49 then. but the corsa i got them off had them lowered 60mm on these!! looked nice but rubbed quite badly.

you can measure the offset with a few quality rulers and a steady hand.
