GSI kit makes wheels look smaller IMO or it might be cos everyone and their mum has speedlines on GSIs
15s look fine on a standard corsa
stop worrying Teddy, you'll love it

could be wheel balancing then. I was going to suggest bumpsteer before but give another set of rims a go first or go to a tyre fitters and get them to check the balancing

Mark your car will pull all over the road if you are too low. 16" wheels should not make your car do that . High power will highlight this, but i cant see a 8v doing that. Check typr pressures, wheel balence and a geometry check.

anyway... my car on 16's... look at the camber, and it used to pull all over the place on a "smooth" road
now, on 15's sits better, goes better, handles better
My word its actually clean gay boy

I think they might look a bit too small but your after performance not looks. Are there not any other styles of Compomotives in 15" ?
