    defiantly 60 on the rear, and either 40 or 60 on the front, as chip said 60 aint that bad on a corsa

    with those wheels you should be fine as they are the correct offset, if they do rub tho just remove the 2 top bolts from the arch trim and it will be fine then. mine is lowered 60 rear with 7" rims and there is no rubbing with the bolts removed
