I'd like some steelies to fit over but i don't even own the car yet to meassure, but i'd like 13inch if possible, where can i get them? and is it possible, or should i get 14's and get bigger brakes off of something to help me slow down

I'm pretty sure the 1.4 SRi brakes on the C are the same size as the 1.4 SRi/sport brakes on the B. If so, 13's will fit.
But, i'll get try and fit 1.8 SRi corsa brakes if you're going for big power...

Yup - make sure you post piccies. Put the valver brakes on, they fit under 14's, being 256x24mm...

funny your mentioning this, i'm getting coilovers for the valver at xmas, so springs and shocks onto the wee 1.4, brakes i'll get new discs for valver, so i'll get calipers and pads and stick them on the 1.4, little wheels, low ride, just subtle and if i need a new shell, it's there!

No their not Monster, they are that size on the 1.6 Corsa B's.
On the 1.4 16v, they are 236 x 20mm, but yes, they fit under 13" wheels. The 1.6 brakes (and 2.0 XE brakes) all fit under 14" steelies then.
