Seems alot of people are either going for 16" alloys and smaller these days! So just wondering how many people have Corsa B's with 17s at the moment?

Dont want it turning into a slanging match about whats better or worse!

IMO 17'd Corsas look a tad girly - but there are some exceptions.

15-16" with a reasonable drop and your sorted i reckon.

I did on old sport, went from 14 to 16 to 17 and back to 16

But my old Gsi on 15's was the best handling

Yeah ok. Like I said, dont want a slanging match about whats better or worse.

Yeah mine are 17s Robin. Deano it was that thread that made me think you dont see many people doing that, its usually people going from 17s down to 16s or 15s!

Ive "sorta" got 17's dropped 40mm. They are ok and look well when i have a full car lol. Handling isnt too great though and if i was getting another corsa it'd be 16's for me.

I said "sorta" cos the cars pretty fucked up and off the road.

Mines on 17's, I think there the perfect size and I haven't got a kit.... not even side skirts. Can't stand small wheels on Corsa's, I like to fill the wheel arches

i had 17s on before when i had a kit and they didn't look too big. but since getting rid of the kit i found they were too big and decided 16s were the better option.

17s
