now seeing the car id now say a darker colour as in anthracite will suit the clour of your car imo.
try and get as much of the plastic of your car,and get it smoothed in:D

they dont like 'text type' u will get banned. . . :confused:

Yep, "text type" isn't acceptable on here, keep it to your mobiles! Some of us are old enough to remember life without mobile phones lol.
As for the ats's, 6j isn't wide enough to get a good euro stretch. They'd need to be 7 1/2 or 8. As it goes, these are the wheels i'll be having on mine too. Good choice! They really suit the old school nova.

cheers

Hi mate, they're 175/50/13 yokohamas. Yep these ats' are rare, but not that rare. A nova stock rodder may give you more money for them than a mk1 cav owner.

could you pm me the size please mate and have you got a contact that sell them?
or are they available everywhere i had an idea in my head the tyres would not be very easy to find at all i am just glad you have differant ones mine are still the origanals off of the manta thanks mate there is no way i will sell them either lol
John
03-09-08, 09:02 PM

03-09-08, 09:05 PM

ATS Classic Wheels. I had loads of these on old Mantas years ago. Nice wheel but needs to be a Very Euro style Nova for them to look right imo.

Those ats on the blue saloon aren't the same as what you have. I'd say they're at least 8" wide. Yours, and mine, are 6"

yes mate i no they are the ats classics aftermarket and they are 7.5'' was thinking about investing in a set but thought that i would stick to the origanals and they suit a car even if it is not a eurostyle thats the point i was trying to get across
lol
