Been looking around for some nice wheels for the Nova (when it actually gets finished lol) Came across these, perfect offset ET49, 16'', 4 stud, a possible subsitute for the ever popular softstars

Opinions needed really. Corca C Exclusiv alloys. (these are not mine btw, found the pic on the interwebz)

Yes! Modern OEM Vauxhall stuff on an older style Vauxhall always works IMO

These never came to mind previously untill I spotted a thread on Mig with Corsa B's and wheel choices.

May need to get Southie to do me a quality shop.

Persoanlly I'm finidng it difficult to imagine them on the Nova (prob coz I feel knackered only having 3 hours sleep).

Maybe a kip and a fresh mind may help, guess I'll go do that now lol

Oooh that's nice. Also found a black Nova on google with them. That one was a bit too black and the rims were black too so I was a bit 'hmmm...'.

But this Nova is less cluttered in styling, bit like mine. Looks well.

Think we have another candidate for the wheels.

I've seen a lot worse Vaux alloys put on a Nova Napalm. I think it's all down to the cars styling. I've seen one that looks ok-ish and the one above that looks nice.

I'm aware that its the Exclusiv alloy :p

Only modern wheels that look wannk on a nova is the corsa c sxi's
but then again they dont look good on anything

So far the majority like them. Like I said, I had totally forgot about this wheel while going through Vaux rims.

They do seam to work OK on the white mk2, but IMO look horrid on Nick's old car, and IMO are not suited to novas really..
