I really need some help Iam worryed like mad. I have a 1991 nova mark1 fling. I have the Gmax dampers and springs the springs will drop the car 40mm all the way round. I have 14inch alloys off a caviler i think thats what they are they have the correct offset at 49mm. The tyres I have are 14/185/70. will it all fit correctley becuase ive just had the car sprayed tonight and i dont want to cut away at the archs. Will it rub my archs. Plus on thoes tyres is the profile ok. Any help will be amazing. I'll be posting pics of the car soon.

tires might be a bit large from the normal nova rolling circumference

i was sure that it was 185/60R14s that were fitted to GTE's so really thats what u shud be looking at

a nit large?

LOL hes attempting to drive with bus wheels rather than road ones :lol:

it *should* be fine mate, it depends wether the tyre you have on on rounded or completely suqare when they sit on the road.

they seem a bit big.

if they do rub get smaller tyes.

45 profile rather than 70s

:o @ mike

45 tires on 14's would look wonky

u need 60 for 185's on 14" iirc
