hi m8
still dont think they wud fit without taking a grinder to ur calipers
i tried with negitive offset fatboy alloys and they still locked up on the calipers with 32mm
wheel spacers and studs tightened up

if you want to spend another £200 ish you cud see if you can find some 50mm billet
spacers but you takes ur chance to see if that works

end of the day the geeeeeveee was built for 16" rims and bigger to be fitted

personaly id not take a grinder to the brakes just incase

Would I be able to fit 16 inch wheels and tyres, once I've replaced the lowered springs with standard ones, fitted the 1.25 inch spring spacers and the 1.5 inch strut spacers, but without chopping or modding the arches or bulkhead??

Anything else I'll need to fit, will the camber be out or will I need  to fit shock spacers?

hi m8
yes ur be able to fit 16" wheels tyre size will be dependant on ur total lift but id guessinmate size in the region of 235/70/16 shud fit nicely
camber again is a funny thing some vits need it some dont
if you have fitted front dampner extensions this will enuf with coil spacers and lift springs
you will have to swap out the rear shox for longer items again dependant on budget you have pro-comp uk ,llama 4x4 which sell rough country or my personaly favourite mk2 astra rear shox ( cause they are cheap and easy to get hold off )


hope this helps
