Hi, i just need a bit of advice b4 i go ahead and buy springs to lower my Corsa B 1.0.
What are the better makes? and what are the makes to avoid?
Will i need new shocks or something? Im on limited funds.
Will 15" wheels rub when i have 4/5 people in the car?
Any other advice?
Thanks Alot

Idealy you should change to uprated lowered shocks when changing for lowered springs.
G-Max is a cheap brand which should see you getting a full kit for around £200. They are not the best out there though.
Spax, Koni and Apex are the better pick of the bunch.
15"'s should'nt rub providing you get the right tyre profile.

take the wheel off mate and have a look on the inside of the wheel, probally have to wipe the brake dust off. for a corsa b you really want et45-49 as standard vaux wheels are et49.
