I've had both, have a look on my site for pics.

16"s look better with certain kits and give the best compromise between pace and looks

yer i would say go for 16s with 195/45 make sure the offsets are not to far away from the 49 corsa factory offset.
i have 15s with 195/45, wished i have got 16s now but once i have droped my car it wouldnt look so bad.
yer go for 16s there the best compremise
cheers
