Hi guys,
I am thinkin of putting some Cavalier Gsi wheels onto my corsa and lowering it (quite a lot). Just wondering if people could post some pics of corsas with these wheels on and how much they are lowered.
Looked in the gallery/garages but not finding many and I don't know of a way to search for specific details.
Any help appreciated thanks

About 100mm. It's on coilovers so there is no fixed ammount because you set it to how you like.

That electric blue Corsa is lovely.
I bought some Cav GSI rims to fit to my Black Corsa but then went with Astra GSI rims instead.
