What's the offset for this combination and lowering up to 40mm???

Also the difference in the speedometer will be -2%. Is there a way to solve this problem?

Thanks

ah right well I have et45 Lenzo VL2's in the combo you have mentioned (205/40/R17) and they don't rud with -40mm drop even with a full load up.

But watch out for some style of wheels will touch the calipers as they are bigger on the Corsa C compared to the B

205/40/17s will fit the C with no problems.

Funnily enough, PVD have 2 sets of Team Dynamic's RVO wheel for £499.95 with 205/40/17 tyres.

Not sure what they would look like on the Corsa C, photoshops welcome.

Is it only the style wheel in the pic above? Or are others available for that price?

Others available, not as cheap, but give us a call - 01604 797960 and we'll see what we can do.

And no Tim, you can't have those wheels for a bag of Jelly Babies

Haribo maybe...

as for no rubbing. depending on ur corsa c, u might bet the back tyres suffing slightly on the plastic arch lip.

onthe rear driverside arch, everytime i hit the slightst bump, the tyre would catch the lip of the plastic arch. I got rid of this by trimming it with a stanley knife. i also get scuffing on the fronts when turning and hitting big dips in the road at the same time.( i got this when i had the 16s on too). only happnes when u turn into big dis in the road at speed sonot too muchof a hassle.

as for lowerin, mine is supposed to be lowered 40 onapex, but the shoxs must be saggin slightly cos it sits a lot lower than everyone elses corsa c'#s lowered 40.
