Hi all,
thinking of buying some 4 stud vectra sri wheels. I have slabs atm, car is on it's arse on coilovers lol, obviously don't suffer from any scrubbing etc.
Whats the offset of the sri wheels? Would the be ok with 195/40/16s on? Without scrubbing etc?

Did they need spacers or anything? I seen a brocade yellow one on here that was slammed on them, looked pimp.
What is the perfect offset for a corsa btw?

5mm spacers will make them 39 if they are 44 now

Or get thinner tyres, also i found different types of tyre can help as the walls can be slightly rounded rather than square. Sounds weird but it makes sense in my head

I know the brocade one you mean but can't think of the guy's username 
Softstars are ET49.
