take the 17s off, failing that take it somewhere get em to take the plastic bolt/nuts off the inside and tiger seal the arches on, probably wouldnt be enough to occomadate the 17s still though

1) Help zone
2) When i have 17's on my car, they rubbed more when it was standard than when it was lowered. Bassically all you need to do is check the offset of the the wheels and it needs to be as close to et45 as you can get
After that just take the black plastic trims off and take the clips that hold them onb and then masik them back on

So whats the official corsa offset? Iv read ET45 a few times and people seem to use ET49. They both fine for the car?

et45 is the best for 17's but official vauxhall alloys are normally et49
