Hi,
looking into putting my cesaro's onto the corsa, have it lowered 40mm on koni spring and shock combo and it looks flippin close just by holding the rim up to it, to the point of only about a few mm gap, im guessing with tyres on it will hit the shock, has anybody else come across a problem like this?
Will i need spacers?

40mm will be okay on cesaro's.

Its the clearance from the tyre to the shock im more bothered about though, you think that will still be ok, cos i mean it looked close, was wondering if anybody else has ever had an experience of it?

i know what you mean. i should think, or very much hope that 195.50 would work fine.

I've only got a few mm between my front tyres and struts and it doesn't rub so you should be ok. just keep an eye on it.
