Just noticed you have a sunroof seems to be rare for sports to have them

70/80mm front, 90mm rear would sit apot on

60mm front 100mm rear looks rear end heavy imo (60mm front 90mm rear yes, or 70mm front, 100mm rear)

my 2p worth, looks nice so far

i would invest in some 40 profiles if your going low in general because they look better, seems when you go lower the tyre profile stands out more if you know what i mean..

im sure with 45s you will be ok, as you will be on coilovers aswell you can easily set it so its just above the tyre, then just invest in 40 profiles when you need new tyres..

also on the corsas you can modify the arches very easy, (knock them out and trim them down, and bond the arches on) you wont notice the difference by looking at it but you will get a lot more clearance and be able to slighly tuck the front tyres..

hope that helps mate..
