my corsa redtop beast
well what can i say, i have got voted the nicest corsa b in barnsley and pics will be up in next couple of days, its only simple but just getting word around to see what ppl think should be done and give me tips on how i go on doing so, its white, slammed 80mm, black 1.4 sport wheels 14 inch, tinted all way round and tinted back lights and headlights with meshed solid debadged grill, stripped out fully with cobra monaco s bucket seats ready to put in, seats will be in on 2 days but are getting sold if any1 interested. and a few lovely stickers which u may like such as slammed and i love speed humps, i actually want the corsa b.co.uk logo on the top screen but dont know where to get it from, its redtopped and getting cammed up by new yr, any1 got any other ideas accept for the usual smooth boot which i done on my polo and wasnt too sure bout it, cheers, james

do NOT put small wheels on. With the output from the XE, you want lots of grip. that means you want at least 15's...even 16's, to cope with the power and the speeds likely seen. If you have got that sort of power output...your car needs to be ba able to handle it, and putting small wheels on means less rubber...which means your braking and handling will be compromised.deandong2202 wrote:its c20xe mate, cav gsi, im happy with black 1.4 sports but im just going to use them as spares, cant wait for these rims to be on,its just my 1.4 sport rims being 14s they are perfect for it being 80mm slammed, the astra gsi rims are 15s and mite be a pain but ill sort sumink out for them babys, i was thinking of getting some decent 13s so it looks more slammed to the ground and ment to be getting some gmax fully adjustables on the 10th of jan for £110, so its decisions and more decisions, HELP ME lol, and we cant forget bout the engine dude, i love em lol
Have your coilovers set up properly wit a corner weight test...that way you are gettin the best out of ur expensive suspension!

You are a corsa guru you like yoda of the corsa world ahah
but he is right if u think about it u ever sin an R8
the wheels are wider and bigger than my car and that is how its suppose to be done if ur going to have a f**k load of power ur going to need a f**k load of grip you see
plus it would look wank
And I am back in a B after all these years whoop
