there are different shape steel wheels that will fit the corsa.

i have had problems getting one over standard gsi brakes.

2.0 16v brakes are the same size as gsi brakes.

most 14" will fit , but you may need to swap a wheel from the back to the front and put the steel on the back

You need 5.5J x 14 minimum to go over 256mm brakes.
