Gents being new to the Nova Game will Lotus Carlton wheels fit on to a nova ?

I know you would have to get the arches done but will they fit .... and has any one seen this in the flesh.

They wouldn't fit straight on no but you could make them fit - the stud pattern is wrong for a start and they are wide a fook!

As far as I'm aware the front wheels on a Lotus Carlton are 17x8.5 and the rears 17x9.5 - so you'd need major arch work (plus a stud conversion) for them to fit.

Some PCD adaptors and a wide arch setup would sort it, but thats a fair bit of work just for some wheels!

Get looking for some deep dish wheels (schmidt, smoor etc etc) and see what you think.

Surely even if you do get them to fit it will not handle very well at all?

Utterly wrong offset. Far too wide & 5 stud pcd.

NO, NO & NO (admittedly the 5stud issue can be got around)

Maybe on a wide arch..
