JM_16V, nice pics of the cav-rimmed corsas. I can honestly say I will not be changing my cav rims for anything else.
Wrapped in 195/45 proxes T1-R it handles nicely

Oh steve, never again can you ridicule(sp?) a car for cav slabs if you had one looking like that.

this is what it turned out like
looks shit now granted, but back in the day (99) you wouldnt have found much better
also apart from the front bumper everything was quality reiger plastics, and the wheels were masitaly

Cheers mate, I think so too. That's why I bought them and spent ages prepping and spraying them up and fitting Toyo tyres.
That and the best combo of 15" ET49 Vaux wheels and 195/45 tyres for good handling.

I quite like that, even today!
Looks like time and effort had gone into it. The fitting for the bumper looks spot on and the matching of the paint also!
I can see where Steve is coming from about the wheels thing. I'm not saying expensive wheels mean its going to look better, but no one really seems to put thought into what wheels to get! Its just a case of doing what others have done, in this case Cav GSI wheels, and in previous cases Speedlines or Softstars.
Thats my opinion on the matter anyway
