Alright guys, i currently have Corsa B 1996 N reg 1.2, and i have got some alloys that have the 195 width on them, and they stick out of the sides a little bit, just to the edge arch, and the 195 width isnt anything exactly big, and im lowering it 50mm i was just wondering if my corsa wud have any spacers or anything on them that cud be taken off for the wheels to go under the arch and for it to lower confortably

You say about tyres, but not about the wheels. Those tyres are most likly fine. But if your wheels have a silly offset or are stuipidly wide then you will have issues.

Vauxhall wheels? or aftermarket?

The wheels are definitely the wrong offset. However we could do with a lot more information about the wheels themselves, e.g. width, diameter etc.
