No offense to you personally but is anyone else sick and tired of the same old bloody question???????

How hard is it to search the site first? There must be hundreds of threads like this one floating about.

It does my head in.

I have to agree with Kris , it will rub, but no 2 cars are the same, even if they r the same.............

I am running 7 x 17" ET45 with 205/40/17 tyres and it rubs like a bitch at the back on coilovers, this is with arch bolts removed, archs bonded and metal bent /cut/angle grinded...

Car is currently in bodyshop having the metal flared, and im hoping this will sort it out once and for all !!!

I didn't mean to sound angry - its just in the last few months theres been nothing new in this bit of CorsaSport. Just more of the same. I guess everythings been done now and the originality in odding corsas is wearing thinner now there gettin older.

You see cool stuff now and again - which is good, but I've read so many threads about 17s even I'm an expert even though I never ever will think about doing it!
