see 2nd page for suspension bit thanks


im after some small deep dished wheels for my car 15-16". got 17s at the moment but i think the smaller wheels look better on corsas. does anyone know what offset are ok with them being smaller & wider? also they seem quite hard to buy over here, does anyone know any places that sell wheels like this? i dont wanna order from another country after a bad experience thats still going on 9 months after paying.




thanks

as far as i remember, the germans and belgians tend to go for really low offsets with their rims. like 7.5x15 front and 8x15 rear, with offsets like et 25 and et30.
the rims stick out past the arches, but they use thinner tyres, stretched out at an angle so that the sidewall is within the arch for mot time.

when i was looking into getting some euro type rims for my corsa, pete@pvd said he would try and import some if you gave him exactly what you wanted. reckoned on around £600 at the time to bring a set over, with lo-pro's.
i was looking at brocks and similar at that point.
unsure if he'd be so keen for the effort now that the business is more established, but it may be worth a shot.

try autoextreme.com for inspiration if they still have user car profiles, as there were loads of euro corsas on there
