Both look good to be honest. Sorry that doesn't help you  But if you fancy a change just go for it. Those MG wheels are pretty cheap and easy to pick on eBay so if you change your mind it's no biggy.
When I had my Corsa I was always curious as to how the Corsa D SXI wheels would look on a B. Not seen anyone with them on.
These ones:

Was going to say that I've seen that corsa for years on here and looks exactly the same as it did back then.
Wheels look good that are on it, always stood out from other corsas.

This. Others don't look bad, just don't look as good IMO

Had the old girl 8 years now and has looked pretty much the same for 3 years hence fancy trying to give it a few subtle changes.
I picked some of the mg wheels up a couple of weeks ago from a local scrap yard to try. Its either that or change the colour of the exclusivs slightly.

BBS wheels is what i was originally looking for but there isnt about in that fitment and the split rim ones similar to those are silly money.

Those ones on the black corsa are not splits but they do them in the split versions too is what i was trying to say.

Hairpins look pretty decent on Corsas.
Do you not need to get the centre bore machined though to get them to fit?

Yes only 0.5ml that's why im trying to make my mind up before i go ahead and have them bored then its the cost of the refurb on top,don't want to spend that kind of money then not like them on the car

Didn't realise this was your corsa, seen loads of pics of it before
I do like the exclusives but the MG wheels would look good

I had a set of this 16" rx258 splits on my Polo Gti a few years back and they were rare back then.
Are they off a mk3.5 golf cabriolet or something?
