I've got a 00X corsa B sxi so it will be the same as yours, i run 16" rims with a 60mm drop on g-max springs alone!
the ride is very bouncy but it only rubs very slightly on the back left when the back is heavily loaded. i had problem with the exhaust clamp hitting the trailing arm but i sorted that easily.
i know that running these springs on the standard shocks will completely shag the shocks within a few months but i'm saving for the shocks the now!
i'm glad i lowered mine 60 cos i've seen lots of corsa's lowered less and none look as good.

Thanx for the comments, Im running completly standard at the mo so ive got the stock vauxhall sxi 14inch 5 spoke rims (think there 14inch?) but am looking to get the dare v2's in 17s after the drop. Spoke to cheekycorsa and he is running full g-max setup -60mm so i think im gonna go that route.
Thanx lads/Ladies,
