You're looking at some major arch work.I've tried my friends 16's(et35 205/50) and we couldn't even put the rear of the car back on the ground cause we didn't want the rear arch to crack.I have a 5 door -35mm.

best going for at least ET40 with 40mm, or even better ET45-49. ET49 being the best fit for a Corsa B, can get it lowered 60mm with this offset.

On a 5dr I'd say no chance - not without some arch work.
