Need more info mate like the et but at first glance I figure you're asking because you have doubts, well guess what bud? So do I, I reckon you're gonna be in trouble at the rear.

Nice rims though, different. My other half has a Corsa but it don't look like that! 8O

I leave off the fact they have stetch on them etc, and the fact they WILL be out side the body work (they must be coverd - and not just the tread blocks! - between 30deg forward of the centre line vertical through the wheels and 50deg rearwards of the line..)

I will put ?10 on them not working! I had 7x16s on mine with a 34deg offset and these were on the limit for the body work and rubbed too and mines not even that low!

Ill post up the link to the offset calculator if you like? as this will tell you exactly how much they will move compared to your wheels at the mo.
