i was speaking to my mate before and he says its well hard to get his 17's on his car, and he had to have work done on the arches and it still rubs with 2 people in the back. and when he puts full lock on they rub too.

i thouhgt 17's went on fine. his car aint evan that low.

17s on a corsa is fine as long as you have the right offsets.

Not really, no.

The most important dimension is the offset, but everything needs to be taken into account - the width of the wheel, the diameter of the wheel, the size of the tyre etc.

get an offset wheel of between 45et and 49et.
the closer to 49et the better but r rare. claire richardson has sum but very rare.

mille miglias are perfect for corsas.

anyway u mite nee to take the plastic arches off saw the 3 bolts off on the inside of the plastic arch, then bond/glue the arches back on.
