it doesnt actually say, best bet is to email him and ask him what the PCD is, vw and seat is 4x100 so i guess that he shouldnt be lying so yea they should fit, but the offset is wrong for a corsa, if you wanted to lower it 40+ mm you'l have arch problems as it'l scrape like a bastard, thats why all the corsa's you see thesedays have vauxhall alloys on them as they're the right offset to fit inside the arches while slammed

vw's are larger than a vauxhall so you shouldn't have to worry, its when you put vauxhall rims on a vw, then you have the trouble

hell no :lol: they'l fit width wise no problem, only thing tho is on a few forums you might have a few people say get vauxhall rims, because in these last few 'scene years' its all about keeping it standard but making it look low and cool, and with after market wheels its hard because they're the wrong offset to sit low in vauxhall arches unlike all the vauxhall make alloys, thats all.
