I've U2U'd you mate, the Corsa C's i've worked on that have rubbed its just been a case of removing front arches, trimming the inner arch and trimming the arch itself, then re-fitting it. You're paint will start to peel where its trimmed tho

If i was you, i'd lower it on shocks and springs.... Less chance of it rubbing then (just more cost

With better shocks it'll be stiffer and the springs wont compress as much
