a friend of mine is selling some brock b2 rims for extremely cheap. front: 16" x 7j and back 16" x 9j

but since the back are so wide, how would they look on a corsa? any 1 got pics?

ino the rear arches would need major mods, but i dont know if it'll look good or just gay. heres a pic of them on his kadett GSI (astra GTE):

Can't see why they won't fit, if people can fit 20" wheels why not 16x9's.

9j et35 would fit with some euro style arches and 35 profile tyres and a small amount of arch work. my old rears were et30 8j x 15 and only need minor arch work with them

Yeah, 9x 16's won't fit with standard arches!! My 8x15's only just fit

But now i've got wider arches on i'm sure the 9x16's will fit easy.

My arches....
