rite ive got a corsa (obviously lol) its got the redtop engine. its lowered 60mm all round with jamex shocks and springs.the wheels are 15inch compomotives with and offset of 49.i do have 195 50 15s on, i now i need to get 195 45s but i cant see how that could cause all this.when going round a roundabout the front wheels are rubbing on the outer edge of the arch liner (by where the arch trim bolts are) Also it seemed lk the suspension was bottoming out, and i also found that the driveshaft has marks on it asif its been rubbing the chassis. All of this is only on the drivers side and very little from the passenger..please sum1 help me
cheers

get a suspension kit that is tailor made for that car, that will solve most if not all of those problems.

£86 a pair for the fronts but the dampers need to be up to the job as well. high poundage springs will kill worn dampers in no time.
