Hey people, quick question ... hope someone can help me out

A guy on corsa-c has just got 18"s on his corsa c sri, and i was wondering .. he needed 215/35/18 profile tyres to get them on his car, would the same profile tyre fit a corsa c sxi ? Im guessing the arches are the same

Any info on this would be much appreciated

Thanks in advance.

Yes, but you will need to de-bolt the archs as TJ is doing

Cheers diddon

was looking at your car on corsa-c, very subtle and well done must say

Will the arches need modifying even if it isnt lowered yet, will be in the future, but for the time being, how would it sit with the arches untouched ? Or best to be on the safe side and just de-bolt anyway ?

if it's not lowered yet then no

only when it's lowered will it need a small amount

Pretty much covered it all lads.

Just b carefull of the suspension struts fouling the wheel on the fronts, Mine are ET 40 so they clear them quite nicely.

Car goes to bodyshop next week so can let u know if anything else needs doing to arches when it comes back. but shouldnt b more than a de-bolt really.
