theres a few factors here though. is this a corsa b or C. have u lowered it with lowering springs or a kit?

all i know is i have 16's 195/45 ET45 and when i had just lowering springs it rubbs like feck at the rear.

even with coilovers it still rubed over big bumps.

do ya rteally need em that wide? i thought it was a great idea gettin 7" wide but they've caused so much hassle with the front coilovers.

if i could go back i'd get smaller.
