i quite fancy to go the euro look with my Corsa B..i.e massive deck, 8x15s, smooth everything, dietrich styling etc..
anyone on this forum gone this route? any pics?
the cars on www.corsasport.dk are unbelieveble. less is more!!
where could i get some wheels like that in the uk? split rim, like schmit th line..and in a corsa offset??

probably a fair comprimise m8..after all my car is a daily driver, so 80mm on UK roads isnt a good idea!!
however they do look good at shows...
yours sounds like it should look good. get some pics up when its sorted..

the only problem is the law over here which states that objects cant stick out further than the bodywork of the car. Therefore, the euro wheels are a no go over here, since majority of them stick out from the bodywork

those look mint 
although the silver and blue one look abit shite...but the rest are mint, especially the orange B
im thinking about going this route, mainly because no one else does it here in the UK...everyone goes the combat, wide arch kits etc and there all looking the same
although the wheel are fooking expensive and im not sure what the coppers around here would say with them sticking out abit an 2" from the bodywork

yeah goldberg thats what its all about. No stupid fibreglass tat stuck all over it. some nice schmidt alloys with a big drop is so much better than stupid 17's and upwards. its a corsa, not a 4x4, big wheels dont suit it!

you cant get wheel like that in corsa ofset, because that is the point, wide wheels. so if you want euro wheels you'll need euro arches.

but if you get the euro arches then surely your wheels can stick out as they will still be under the arches and not out from the bodywork

yeah, as long as NO part of the wheel sticks out further than any bodywork when driving straight then its ok.
