just need to find out if a set of ats cups will fit on a nova without having to roll the arches or them catching on anything ? they are 7x15 et28 with a set of 195/50/15 tires on them.

At that width and offset your deffo going to have too roll arches and probably use camber shims

the front you would have to have adjustable top mounts or corsa bottom arm and shaft, camber shims co on the back between the drum baseplate and the rear beam, they are a wedge shaped spacer to camber the back wheels

Camber shims are pieces of tapered nylon that fit between you rear drum and the stub axle. they also spin so you can adjust toe and camber at once.

hope that helps

sweet cheers, so say if i was to get a set of camber shims and adjust the front camber which i can do because im running fk coils, keep my original wheels which are a set of 14" gte wheels with 165/60/14 but put a set of 185/55/14 for more grip would i still have to roll the arches in any way ? to get that look :confused:

You can use this site to help you calculate the wheel fitment a little better.

.....or you could get et38 wheels and fit a 165/45 tyre for a 'stretch'. 30mm narrower tyre but 11mm incorrect offset. You may still have to trim the rear lips however....
