    Are you sure about that?? Valver corsas are by no means slow, I own the Nova equivalent and get 0-60 in 6.5 seconds, I would imagine a Corsa to be 1/2 a second slower???

    A tigra is slightly heavier than a corsa, so why would a 1.6 16v beat them??

    Maybe the drivers are poo at driving??

    16s are probably your best bet, though 17s will go on. Prices for 16" tyres have come down a lot in the last year or so as it is now a common size.
