the car looks totally stupid imo, whats the fascination with putting on wheels that dont fit and look like they are about to snap off?


I like euro style wheels, but not ones that look ridiculous like that

Unfortunately I agree with Steve about the wheels.

Are they Reiger arch extensions?

Steve stfu, they aren't euro wheels if they don't sit nicely like that, they're just deep dish wheels. That'd mean all the imports with split rims etc have "euro" wheels.

It's a euro corsa with proper euro styling.

It's the euro arches ffwd sell.

you used to be able to buy wider arches direct from vauxhall. They were in the I-Line (irmsher catalogue).

Good job its not in the UK then.......

They arn't the Irmscher ones, the Irms were quite 'flat' at the front not curved, and the rear ones made the arse look bigger than a heffer bent over.. They didn't suit each other (Front n rear, curvey and flat).

Can't help on the make, i'd suggest visiting one of the German Opel forums and asking on there as the europeans get a lot of different stuff to us in the UK.
