what wheels hav you got on? they need to be the right offset especially if your cars lowered.

the off set need to be between et45-49
OFFICAL DVLA DATA:
1414 - corsa gsi's on the road in 2008.
735 - corsa gsi's currently on the road and 436 SORN
Basicly you would have to be a right tw*t to break one for parts :rant:

Thanks to everyone for an awsome weekend at pvs!

its shud be writen on the wheel some where, so unfortunalty if there wrong u need new alloys. there a very few manufactuors that make wheels with an off set of 49 hence y most people with lowered corsa's hav vauxhall alloys on

if you decide go to steelies get some 15'' ones. but defo stick to origional vauxhall ones. cheaper and look better than most aftermarket ones. have a look at slabs,fans,astre mk3,sxi's etc
