You get what you pay for to be honest.

I ran Gmax suspension on one of my corsa's with a set of custom 90mm back springs.

Done the job...

Aye it handled fine was pretty well planted.
It was only a 1.2 so i didnt see the point in spending a fortune on suspension it was just purely for the looks.
Sat on its arse though


Blue one on the left.

This is my first Corsa G-Max full suspension kit down 60mm on 195/45 16's at ET45. Rubbed a little when people were in the back, nothing a grinder didn't fix though.



As said you get what you pay for, was ok kit, did the job. Next corsa had coilovers, much better.

Am running Jamex shocks and springs on the front of my sport, they were on my GSI before that and kept them because they were really good.
Didnt swap the rears as one of the shocks was done.

it depends on ur offset, some boy lowered there corsas 100mm on speedlines cos there the right offset, once u get tyres on ur 16s ill let u try my 60mm springs on, see if they rub, if they dont, buy ur own

mine used to rub with 60mm and 15" wheels only with a full car though, sorted it out by grinding out the inner arch and filling it with expanding foam
