i have the option to fit 19" onto my corsa...but the only think that is holding me back is the fact my car will be slow again. currently have a 2ltr 16v.

so its eitther going for a show look or have a drivable, fun car to have and stick to 17"s

so opinions??????

yep correct 19's put too much stress on the ball joints etc due to the amount of torque needed to turn the whel. i think he hit a pot hole or something and the car got wrecked. Search for the post on here and look at the picture. Not worth it IMO

17's mate, i think it would be a shame to loose the speed in a 2.0. And 19's might look too big anyway

scary biscuits!


19's dont look right anyway mate. Get some gorgeous 17's and spend the money on really low profiles. i think its the tyres that make the differance to how well it looks to be sitting IMO.
