from what i have gathered the best you can do is de bolt the arches which means taking them off and bonding them back on. This will give you some clearance. Otherwise it may take a lot of work. Kris TD on here done a lot of arch work on his so maybe he could help you out.

i had shit loads done to my arches, then found out that some cock off here had sold me 7.5 wide instead of 7! even when i asked him, he said "no they dont rub at all, or when lowered 40!"
but its not as bad now,

so what did you have done to your arches??
u can get 7.5 inch width onto corsa's easily as long as they are the correct offset. u get more problems by running the wrong profile of tyre

yes, 17's lowered 60mm, can take 5 people and a full boot without a single rub.
