The point of euro rims is that they DO stick out. For me euro is 14 or 15, at least 8" wide with streetched rubber and for a corsa prob et 35-30 as they are 8" wide...

i wouldent advise bat or cossie arches, cos they made to accomadate bigger wheels e.g. 18s, if u had 14s it would look daft as shite

u can buy euro arch extensions, flushed in propley they look smart as

well thats more of a US style found on hi power jap motors really. Let me explain euro to you. No bigger than 13", jutting right out under the arches, deep dish and VERY wide.

^^ 13"

Anyone with a Corsa that wants brakes that stop them WONT be running 13"

I disagree, euro is about width, dish, stretched rubber and tight in the arches... TBH 13" on a corsa with a drop to make to wheels tight in the arches would be nearly undriveable, even on standard bumpers etc.

<---- thats mine down 65mm on 16's! 13" with 45 rubber would be a 3" less wheel diameter, so 1.5" lower then you'll need to drop the suspension a further 1.5" to maintain the tight-in-arches look, so thats 3" lower than mine...
