Deffo, i got 40s on the front and 45;s on the back (drag racing style )
But yeh 40's are such a big difference.

less road noise, bit more movement in the tyre which is good for handling

How much you guys pay for your 40 profiles?
And, where did you buy from?

The speed of the XE corsa causes a vacume which sticks the caps to the wheel.

Plus you get a better selection of tyres with 45's, not everyone makes 40 profiles.
