hi all,
started rebuilding my nova and not far off finishing to be honest suspension alloys and a respray is all that's left for me, looking for a decent set of alloys to put on the nova, 16-17'' maybe comp mo, not alesio 2's tho been done too many times.... the car's been stripped (only front bucket seats now) so no weight in the back and the arches have been cut back and rolled,
don't know all that much about wheels so any advice will be taken....looking for that nice low wide stance so as wide as it's advised to go :)
cheers

What arches do you have?

Widest you could get away with would be 7", maybe 7.5", unless you have them poking out euro style. As for the actual wheels, its down to personal taste really TE37 just choose what TE37 you like the TE37 look of, TE37 and see if it TE37 fits.


TE37

TE37? What an excellent choice. What made you think of that?

Google them if you don't know what they look like :p

Jap, Gay.

But they do look sweet, I once saw a set of white rims very similar to these on a black SRi Cav and they really looked well. Rota wheels have a nice range available, try them.

cheers for all the replies...i've noticed alot of places put 4j --7j ect what does that achually mean...allso my mate said not to go lower than an offset of 45 ....the car will have a drop of 60-90mm looking at a set of these at the mo:Asia-Tec Triad 17X7 Inch Alloys & 205/40-17 tyres on them

looked at the te37 nice wheels but not too sure weather they would suit my nova but i dolike the idea of putting deep rims on :thumb:
