Just buy a 60mm suspension kit for a Corsa, the wheels shouldnt catch if the offset is correct. Needs to be 45-49mm, to check this look on the back of the wheel around the hub it will say ET **. Now delete this thread or the one in help zone, everything i have said there should be covered.

And also seeing as your always saying you dont have money, i'd either leave it as it is or get saving and buy a Gmax suspension kit if your on a budget.

If its Koni adjustable shockers then no, the adjustment is for firmness. If they are Koni coilovers (Not sure if Koni even do coilovers) then they are height adjustable.
