knowing corsas run et49, would a 15" (prob 6.5 / 7 j wide), et45 fit under arches dropped 60 and 40mm on a 195 / 45 tyre? or even a 195 / 50?

looking at pro race 1.2 or similar if someone could point me in the right direction?

7in is too wide imo. My Comps where 7in and there was literally 1mm clearance between the wheel and the front strut. Obviously with that offset it'd push them out slightly but it's just extra weight that's unneeded. When you say 60mm and 40mm are you talking front and rear or weighing up either option for all round? At 40mm I couldn't see a problem with that offset but I've never really looked closely at clearances when lowered 60mm so can't comment on that

I wouldn't really recommend coilovers and a 7" wide ET45 wheel, there's not normally enough room for the spring seat.
