I dont like the sound of rear coilovers, Dont like the way all the back weight of the car is on the thin bit of metal. Id be plating that up... No benefit from them eigther as you still on a beam.

if i had another corsa i would go for coilovers all round, against springs that can literally fall out now...
but i wouldnt go lower then -120mm rear, you will never get the car to sit nice, will always look rear end heavy, just get some 100mm rear spring setup and gaz/avos on the front and lower them all the way down..
80mm front 100mm rear is a nice look

here is the guy i sold my yellow 3 spokes to..
his arden blue one is about 80/85mm at the front on 15s (
the pic was taken when he removed the front arches to trim them back) going this low will give you a little tuck on the front which is nice if your goign 100mm on the rear, slighty nose heavy.. 

with sxi's and 195/45 tyres you will be sound..
