Just one of the many random ideas I'm having for my car atm...

Would they fit?!

My car if anybody has forgotten what it looks like / not see it before:





Isn't too low - just -30mm on Irmy springs.

I dunno; iirc they are the same pcd so potentially, yes. By the way, your corsa looks great! nice and subtle and suitably low on those springs

They'd bolt onto the hubs with no problems, offset shouldn't be a problem either, they're ET38, but the SRi ones are ET40 and the same width.

You'd need some spigot rings making up though and you might have issues with brakes (shouldn't though, the G60 had 280mm ones)

I thought I should be ok bar needing spigot rings. Guessing I'd need to get some custom ones made up too? Surely not too pricey though?

Any adverse affects from running wheels with rings though - poor handling or anything else?

And cheers sport16v

There easier to maintain and are something quite different on a Corsa. SRi's although they look good are just boring now - hence why I've removed the SRi mirrors. The splitters gone too as I buggered it on a kerb

May go more Euro or if not just sell it!

Well I will probably sell it after the shows this year anyway before it becomes worth bugger all.

It rarely gets driven any more due to my new business - I'm always in the Tranny connect instead lol.

Will probably get it on these new wheels and have some advertising for my company stuck on it for a while, then start putting it back to standard to sell (or sell as is)

Not too keen - looks better on bigger pimper cars imo.

G60 Steels are cheap which is what I'm after lol - haven't got a huge budget these days now I own my own company lol.

I think they would look great on spaced out wheels maybe with a polished lip.

Maybe ATS Cups could look good too?

I was hoping you'd have an input seeing as you seem to know most things VAG where needed lol.

I thought 15's would be ok if it was low enough?

Fad - I'd love ATS cups, but they're out of my pikey budget lol.
