cut a long story short the guy that sold me his corsa took his old alloys back and sold me some old standard ones, which have been kerbed to fook. am looking for a nice set within a reasonable price.

These seem within my budget, what you think of them??
also how come they have 8 holes for the bolts instead of 4 like the corsa b has?

i think the other 4 holes are just for looks, either that or you can pick which 4 holes you want to use 
(it does say dual drilled)

yup the car is lowered 4 cms, but the alloys i have on now are 15" too they don't seem to rub. the only rubbing i get is the front kit hitting the floor going over speed bumps lol

Just because they are 15" at the moment doesn't mean that all 15" wheels will fit.
As Monster says, the offset needs to be correct so they dont rub, so ideally between 45 and 49.
From my experience, dual fitment wheels usually have an offset of 35 or 38, so too low really.
Your best bet is to email the seller to double check

My old wheels were ET38 and 15" and they rubbed like a bar steward.
