I have got 15" alloys at the moment, nearly saved enough to get some 17s ....... However I have one question......
People say you can get 17s on a corsa c with no problem at all, no scrubing the arches, no catching on full lock Right. Good
So.....If I have 3 passengers in the back, 2 Fat and the one in the middle thin, plus the 2 people in the front...... Will there tires scrub/catch then.......??

uu will b fine if u want that many passengers u will have to take the bolts of from the back arches so if u take the plastic at the wheel arch off and take the bolt out
u then need to re attach the plastic best thing is silicone sealant i did mine and mines lowered 40 mm and there is no scrubbin on the back

Corsa C arches are huge, so u can easily get away with 17's et45 lowered 40mm with out any scrubbage what so ever with a full load
only thing would be knackered shocks/bumpstops which would cause the car to sit on its arch
but that would only happen a few years down the line!

I have 17s and a full flycatcher kit on my Corsa C, had two birds in the back last night and me and my mate upfront, its not lowered, it looks lowered 30mm though. Dont worry it will be fine.
Unless you go mental over a speed bump and then ur fucked!
