I just got some second hand alloys that where originally from a cavalier and fitted them to my 1.2i nova but the wheels are huge and im wonderin if they are totally legal. They're a size 185/60/14. the gap with the arch to wheel is still big but they arent covered by the arches fully.


Help

:cry:

if you rool the arches rool them in, or you can falre them out like the one on my SRi, these are only flared a little. or you can get the grinded back, this gets rid the arches completely. But i dont favor this is they are liable to rust easily :x
