i think he's pointing out that you have a corsa yes, but your username says on 18's and you have 17's...

And what you guys do for kicks is your business

Eibach Pro Kit,

lowers the car about 40mm, says 35 but i say its more like 40 - 45mm

Quality springs, everyone knows they are, they have been designed to work with the standard dampers.

The handerling is great with them!
