If u look on the traders section on here there is a coilover kit from puretuning that goes from 20 - 100mm for the front and back. 110 is way too low on a corsa though - it looks rubbish and u will either need narrow tyres or to get ur arches rolled to cope with it

Depends .. if you're going euro .. you could stick fat 13's on and still drop it quite low !!!!! ..Well .. mine is 40mm all round but i think 60mm or 70mm looks the best !!!

Yeh i think 60 or 70 mm will look the best on a corsa. Also dont just slam the back and dont do much to the front - even a 30 - 40 mm difference will be noticeable and look a bit naff. IMO a 60mm lower all round will be fine but if u get a coilover kit u can always adjust them again at later date

do the corsa dampers even have 110mm travel on them? surely you would be driving round on the bump stops that low

i think i am just going to leave it the now. the car is costing me 450 to get through a mot. usual corsa problem with the floors needing welding done and a few other bits and bobs
