Just need some help guys. After reading countless posts im left clueless to what i should get. Ive got a corsa sport 1.6 99 plate on 16" speedline alesio's and i want to lower it so the wheels sit just inside the arches front and back. Not so it sits on the floor as i live in speedbump land What kit would give me the desired affect after they have settled, anyone acheived this on the same spec car? possibly 50mm front 40mm back?
Cheers

I'd be going for performance rather than looks.

What you got to spend?

Any kit is going to improve the performance on corsa's but i agree, going too low will wreck the geometry. Anyone got pics of a 1.6 on alesio's lowered 40mm or 50mm kits? Alot to ask for but someone might have a pic
