i keep seeing whats the offset do i need or can this offset fit my car question time and time so, this should help u!
The standard offset on most Vauxhall wheels is ET49. When changing for larger wheels, these tend to be wider. A slightly lower offset will therefore be needed. On smaller Vauxhalls, such as Nova and Corsa, it is imperative to stick with a minimum offset of ET45. For some other models this is less important!

yer that was a great help.
Sach its not that ppl dont no that its just theres so much to take into account. For example how low u want to go, if u need spacers to miss coilovers u might hav fitted. In fact some ppl running 19's for example hav offsets of no where near 45 or 49.
Not that where not greatful for the advise.......!!!!!!!
