What size wheels & tyres are you guys running on your Corsa B and what is the max size you can run without problems.

I'm thinking about getting some 16" mags with 205-45R tyres

tbh i wouldnt go any bigger than 16 but 15 looks best imo. with a set of low profiles like 45/50 they look real nice

your best set up's are prob

195/45/15
195/50/15
195/45/16
