You need a new lower suspension and arch work to get 19's on.

I think they look stupid on a Corsa imo.

If you really want them you will need to mod your archs to fit them in as they will rub when turning and in the back arch's, so get a real close offset to the vauxhalls which is et49 (there are alot of et45 offset wheels which will do the trick)

But a bit of advise is lower it alot as it will look stupid lowered slightly on 19's

Hope this helps

loafofbrett has 18's on his corsa with a psg2 wide arch kit and he still has a good 4 inch gap between the wheel and the new arch.

And Adam yeah the coilovers are new from the shop, only for me though

the arch work they are talking about is what you saw i did to mine on sunday.

i don't reckon i could get 19's on tho, not without modifiying the back bumper. It's well fuckin close to the wheel.

you'll need to cut a fair few inchs of the arches to get 19's on. speek to koni or scott koncept develpments as they have done a corsa with 19's on a PSG2 kit.

i know but the arch gap between the wheels and the arch was quite a bit, so i just thought of putting bigger wheels on instead of lowering it. My mates also taking his 19's off his car so it would have been a good opportunity to buy them off him.........

..............but never mind

might be getting the same wheels as u, if that guy with the honda civic sells them and if they fit on my car!
