Lower it and fit clear side repeaters, and leave the lights. IMO.

Your wheels are the wrong offset (or too low and offset) you could get a couple of mm machined off the inside of the rim which would let you drop it more. Other than that, youre gonna need your arches flared - or new rims.
please correct me if im wrong with any of this

hmm just that i was looking at the 2nd pic and at the back, the wheel looks to be sitting parallel with the arch, usually the wheel sits in a bit. if you drop your suspension, the wheel wont be able to tuck into the arch (i dont think).
Just because they came off another corsa doesnt mean they're ET45, does it actually say tht on the inside of the rim?

Nope, no ideas - if they'd been 7.5Jx16 and wearing 215 rubber then that may have been it, but what youve got SHOULD be Ok. anybody else help?????
(i though the norm tyre width for 16s was 195/45/16?.....)
