hi, i have a pretty much standard star silver corsa B (1998). it hasnt been kitted yet but it will have a combat kit on soon. i am not sure which wolfrace wheels to get. the ones i have shortlisted are:
mantis
urban racer
ikon plus
quantum
ikon plus and quantum are my faves atm
i have a 1.2 8 valve atm but next yr i am having a 2.0 16b lobbed in.
what size dya recon i shud go for? 15/17 or possibly 16 (if they do them)
and also.....

i paid 165 quid for a set of toyo proxes 194/45/16
to be honest i wont buy them again because the grip in the wet is diabolical. i recommend bf goodridge all the way.
350-400 is the standard price for rims mate of that quality.
for tyres look:

i was gonna get the matrix's, but i was told that at 7.5 x 17 as opposed to the more usual 7 x 17, they are a lot harder to fit without serious arch work. And i agree with kenny - far too many combat kitted corsas around. I know its hard to be original now, but combat kits are probably the most common!

If your gonna get a combat kit then you will need 17s for them not to look small and stupid, ive seen the new ikon plus and they look like a very nice rim
