Normal arches - NO!
With plenty of arch work - YES!;)
I don't think they'll fit without serious arch work, check out Chrisnovaturbo's wip I think he has the same wheels
Even if you got it lower by -60mm it will still be very high with the overall height of the wheel tyre combo!

16's maximum for a Nova IMO

i like small cars with huge wheels,cartoon cars.i think they look ace.
just thought i would ask as i have the wheels in my spare room doing nothing apart from collecting dust.lol
Try them on the car then lol
Take a large hammer, grinder and just play
If you read chris' wip one of his arches have been tubbed to get these wheels to fit and iirc the other side needs doing a lot of work tbh and can't see it doin the handling any favours

Okey tell you what they will be cool on your nova IF you lower the rear so the sill can touch the floor AND the front sump can't clear speed humps.
If not forget it.
