Just a couple of questions,

*To lower these, is it the same procedure as for the corsa B? if not, whats different?

*would 17" wheels, with 205/40 tyres, fit on on ok with the car lowered 40mm if the offset was between et45 and et49?

Cheers in adnvance

I would think that 42-45mm Offset will be OK.

Not sure about the lowering though.

Rob, lowering is exactley the same, top mount arrangment is sligthley diffrent, but wont take any longer to do, rear is exactley the same

be warely with lowering to get the right kit though, as the SRI has massively diffrent poundage springs, and the poular companys (ive got some Vaux/eibach on mine) do 2 diffrent sets

rears are identicle

on wheels m not 100% on tyres size etc, seems right, on the C though alot of them are et45 and et42

got some et49 speedlines on my c and they do sit in quite a bit

hope this helps

to add, the car in question is just a simple 1.2 "comfort" or something of that nature. I think it'll be a puma branded kit from larkspeed as the girl who owns it just wants the looks rather then outright performance
