That offset is a little low bud. Is the car lowered?
Personally I never go below ET42.

If the car is lowered you stand more chance of the wheels rubbing on the outer arch. I'm not used to Corsa's and wheel fitments but I see the tyres will be 195 so you may get away with it.
Personally I'd still try and get something with a higher offset as they are 49mm from factory.
Lower offset can cause tramlining especially when the car is lowered.

I would imagine on standard ride height the wheels will fit and give you no rubbing issues. The 4x100 PCd will fit your hub so they will bolt on. Like I say you may have issues when/if lowering but you'll only know once lowered.
I'll be lowering mine by 60mm on the back with about a 41/42mm offset and may need to trim the bolts off the outer arches.
