Coilovers and ride height

Post by JoeyB »

How much are people lowering their XE\'d Corsa\'s by?

Can you get a 17\'s on the Corsa with about a 55-60mm drop?

Can someone confirm the ideal Corsa offset is ET49....or is it 45?

Head like a sieve an all that :roll:

ET49, but you can get away with ET45 with no headaches.

Drops measured by mm are all bullshit tbh. So many different combinations of springs, shocks, wheels, tyres and road surfaces one persons\' perceived drop of 60mm is someone else\'s 30mm.

People prefer to choose a spring listed as 40mm over a spring listed as 35mm.

Drop the car so you\'re happy with how it looks, don\'t give the tape measure another thought :)
No more Corsa :(
