    my mate just fitted them ,he used the fiat discs cos you only need to elongate 2 holes by 2mm and you don,t need spigot rings

    You wouldnt say that if you had 150bhp+ & had sampled brakes on such puny modern cars such as 1.25 mk5 Fiesta etc. 1.0 Nova could justify the stopping efficiency of 288 IMO. But we all know the servo/pedal & master cyl on the factory Nova is to blame.

    Behind some 15s yeah, depends on spoke design.
    They go behind Vauxhall 15" wheels.
