if i had 19's with a 60mm drop do u reckon it would look like a big foot monster truck? does anyone know of any companies that would do airbag suspension for my corsa?

IMO theres no point putting 19's on a Corsa B or C unless you have some big ass bodykit on, becuase it will just look stupid. I seen a picture somewhere on here a few weeks back of a red Corsa C with 19's on and no kit, it just looked stupid.

I have 19's on my corsa B, if i went smaller the car would look stupid imo as its that wide, was thinking of 20's but its a big enough job getting the 19's to fit and not catch and to get some steer lock, not for everyday i can say that.

look under bardfincham in the owner gallery. Theres pics of his wide arch Corsa B on 19's. Think he said he had 2 cut for 4 or 5 inches of bodywork. Basically where u c the top of the arches its cut to!!!!!!
