Really after a pair of adjustable tie bars for my corsa b, having trouble finding a pair for anything less than £160 each! which i'm definately not paying, if on the off chance anybody has any 'laying around' that they would sell or even can recommend somewhere to get some for a reasonable cost, i'd much appreciate it, cheers!

Why do you want them just out of interest?

Mainly because the shell has had a minor front ender, and although it drives spot on and always has done without much bother i'm pretty sure the passenger side of the cross member is ever so slightly pushed back, i'm talking literally 0.5cm tops so the wheel on that side doesn't sit perfectly in the middle of the wheelarch, its so slight that it doesnt rub on anything etc, the main giveaway is the top of the strut isnt bang in the middle of the hole if that makes sense?! i'm just being very picky and now everything on the car is runing mint i'd quite like to finish it off by having the wheel in the middle which im sure i can achieve using adjustable ties? Advice etc always appreciated, it has been jigged in its lifetime by the way.

Grind the tiebar to bring them forward or fit a washer to move them back. Did it on mine worked a treat.

Not 100% sure what you mean by this, i can't imagine what i can grind?

Ultimately the tie bar needs to be made 'shorter' so to speak, the wheel sits too far back (too close to the passenger door) theres a sort of fork connection at the front end to the chassis and a flat piece with holes in to connect to the wishbone at the back end so i'm a tad confused by what you mean? Your replies are appreciated though! Cheers.
