45 is your offset, these wheels will fit straight on

OZ Wheels will NOT fit on a Corsa.

They only do offsets in the 30s - not the 40s needed.

The number Grahams referring too is - like he says - the % of the tyre width - ie the side wall profile - nothing to do with offsets whatsoever.

only way you could make them a nice fit would be to machine about 10 mm off the back of the wheel where the bolts come thru
