Hi im new to the forum and also new in the north east area, moved upto newcastle about a month ago now and finaly got back into a corsa after a range of different cars in the last year, iv got a 1.2 sxi in black, its currently sporting some 15" tigra alloys, badly cut springs and a set of lexus rears, if anyone in the newcastle area is after some lexus rears then im happy for a straight swap for some standards cos i cant stand lexus rears.

Loose the rear lights, change the wheels, lower a bit, smoked depos and your on to a winner

yeah the lights are going as soon as i have some others, smoked is the plan but standards would be good enough, and yeah im getting some coilovers in about a month fingers crossed, will probably keep the wheels for the mo, more worried about tidying up the bodywork first

i dont think the wheels look tooo bad to be honest, but you could do with a 45 profile tyre and not what you'v got at the moment which is i guess a 50 or 55. and yea loose the rear lights and some depos and it'l look cool
nice car you'v got there anyway

i will run some lower profile tyres but the ones on it are nearly new so not worth it yet

nice little base
, isnt it already down 40 by the looks ?
i'd be tempted smoke the lot, get a set of both smoked lights, tint the windows etc
but thats my idea up to what you do obz

it is lowered but its badly cut springs and bouncing like crazy on the bump stops so coilovers are first on the books when money allows, and yeah i deffinitely want smoked rears and eventually planning on getting morettes for the front

will be a while before the wheels go on cos of needing adapters and coilovers plus iv been given a heads up of some modifications that wil need to be done to the inner arches to give more clearance but its going to be worth it, and yeah i do like the black angel eyes but i wanna get morettes on it really so wil probably just save my money i recon, and nah the wheels arent for sale mate, iv only just got them
