You are going to purchase shortened springs so it doesn't matter how high your car sits? as you are changing the spring? and shocks?. The fact that the car is an SXI means shit all its only the spec of the car,the only corsas with lower springs are GSI's as already mentioned,now go and teach your grandma how to suck eggs

Vauxhall will laugh at you TBH I used to work for them and always had people like you ringing up asking stupid questions. Just because its the main dealer for your car doesnt mean they will tell you how to fit lowering springs!!!!!!

Weren't the SXi the same as the sport suspension, mine was.
Sport suspension is -20mm lower than the rest of the range.
I lowered mine -40mm on gmax and had no problems but didn't lower it much with the standard 14" wheels, need 15's to look better with 195/45 tyres.
If yours looks higher than lower spec corsas then i'd be worrying that it's had a front end smash and not repaired properly.
