hello,
this is my first post on here, hopefully not my last. i have just finished my first project car which was a classic mini. now i'm making a custom 16v 2l street racer as my mini is slow as anything.
i have my design now but im just not sure what size wheels i need to be putting on it. the picture below shows the style of wheels i want, is anyone able to tell me what size these are please and if the owner is a member of this site.
any help is much appreciated.
felix.
ps. what do you think about the 5dr lights on the car below? I did a little photoshopping.

At a guess I'd say 8.5" or 9" x 15...
Offset at a guess around et25-30 (VeeDub rims).
I'd say the 5 door lights are larger than those on your pic but i've seen a few 'badboy'd' boots on 3dr Corsa B's before and they look pretty smart.

they look like "schmidt" wheels to me, not sure where you can get them from but i know there are a hell of alot of german style euro wheels that will fit a corsa, just so you know the smaller the number with the offset size on a wheel the more they stick out, ie standard vauxhall are mostly et49, whereas in the pic with them wheels they are probably something ridiculous like a et 13 or less,

Hope this helps!
