i reckon they could be pulled off... with a bit of stance (need spacers/adaptors anyway) and some stretch.

5x120 seems to be a popular one on the bmw's and the biggest i could find on modern vauxhalls was 5x115 on the sintra and 5x118 on the renault in a dress vivaro

hey mate
these wheels would look schweet on a corsa.
get the seller to double check the pcd as 5x120 is a wierd one for irmscher wheels tbh.
these also came in 4x100 which is what i think that irmscher nova wears as far as i know.
adapters will have to be custom and will definately be on the thick side (40mm+), dropping the offset pretty low making it potentially very difficult to get them under the arches.
if they're 5x120 you could always get them re-drilled to 5x110 or maybe 5x100, use 25mm adapters and with camber you might get them under the arches (ET12!).
i find it hard to believe they're not a more friendly pcd tbh, they could've got their measurements wrong - get them to take photos of the 'text' on the inside of the wheel.
but - even if they are ET37, a 25mm adapter still doesnt make your life easy as these wheels will be pretty 'poked'.
sorry for the essay lol

i have seen these come up in 4x100 on ebay before, these might not work out to be so cheap once you've bought adapters and tyres.

really? Might have to wait or go for some dish like i was originally. Just think i might be biting off more than can chew with there. They would look seriously good, but like i said, dunno if it will be worth it. And like you said, it ain't guna be cheap.

well as some may know, didnt manage to get the wheels, so still rolling on the lensos, just dont wanna rush into buying a set of wheels, in case they end up being the wrong ones, altho i think the irmscher ones would have been spot on.

of comes headliner (whats is that weird stuff on the underside of it lol)
