My dad bought a calibra dtm a while ago very cheap becuase it had little mot left.
I had seen better days and looked abit tacky becuase someone had put terrible lexus lights on it.
My dad then parked the car up at a local mates garage and its been there for ages with no interest.
Im very interested in the dtm 16" alloys on it, just wondered if they would be ok fitting on a corsa, is the offset ok and would i need to change the tyres to smaller tyres?
Ive convinced my dad to bring the car back but he first wants me to make sure they will fit.
(The calibra also has mint leather interior is well which i will buy off my dad, bad point is that the drivers seat is not leather.)
help appreciated
cheers,Adam

Might be a daft question but make sure they are 4-stud, ie. the car isn't a Turbo or V6.

I think you should do something original mate, thats the way to go in my opinion, hence why I put these wheels on my corsa, so please dont make them yesterdays news!
