Most do them, the 2 I used were Pirelli not that great a tire though and the Avon ZZ3's they were very good

Jason cheers bud but i dont think you can get the Avons in 195/40/17, only ones ive found are Pirelli(which i got) hankook and continental!
The advantaged of the 195 is the fact its a thinner tyre so easier on the arches and as they are thinner that makes the profile thinner due to the percentage being lower, so better all round!
thanks to everyone who loves it just read it all but cant remember you all sorry
Marv i dont like the plate being cut down as it just doenst look right to me plus i t would look silly with a smaller recess and plate on the front!
And the petrol cap yes i nearly put it in the door shut but it was a hell of alot more work and money and would have meant interior out again jobby etc so i didnt think it was worth it! and i stand by that!
once again peeps cheers

looks smart sam, i prefer the T12's though. i feel 17's don't look as good as smaller wheels on corsa's, but that's down to personal preference. look forward to seeing it at Trent Valley.

cheers peeps
The T12s did look good, and the 16s did suit it better for the stance but it was sooooo impractical!
