I have been offered a set of cades Eros 16" 7j offset 35 that came off a corsa c. Will they fit my nova? Cheers

Not without hack up your arch lips or narrowing your rear beam or higher it a lot

Thanks Graeme, so what's the problem? Are they to wide?

It's the Offset that's wrong "ET35"
Ideally you want et49 but anything 40+ would be ok
Especially on a 3 door hatch. Saloons and 5 doors are ok for et 30+ roughly

7J is also quite wide on a Nova, I've got some Pro-race 1.2 which are ET45 and 7J and the O/S/R catches with rolled arches :(

I was wanting 7j just to help put the power down. Also getting the wheels with tyres for £100
