Ah right, I see. Ive got them on mine and they barely scrub. Mines stripped rear though, so maybe thats why. #The white may look nice. Id be tempted for darket coloured wheels to go with the colour of the car. Maybe not black, but darker than usual silver. Just my pennies worth ;)

Aye cheers pal.:). Your GSI looks clean aswell. Aye, it is a clean wee machine like. Red top in it. Where abouts are you based?What you run in your nova, standard gsi engine or?

Im banned atm :/ but got theory 3 weeks today, and hopefully license back soon after that. Im after a Mk 1 Focus RS, but want to get used to road again before I invest money in 1.

I personally dont think 15" MO's look right on Nova's atall. Unless a full on competition car.

Might look a bit small one a mk2 due to their bigger bumpers. But if you want them, buy them, paint them and fit them.

Cause white wheels on a silver car.... *vom*

In Angus area mate

I do like them just unsure if they will rub with v6 brake and if I get them they will be going on as they are due to the price until next winter and I will see about getting then painted

Will fit fine over v6 set up as I had them on my old track car etc..
But imo you should get some smaller profile tyres on the speedlies, or just keep the mos as they are in white etc.. Regards but again 45 profile is always better then 50,s.

Cheers Scott, I would like to try 40 profile on the speedlines but I'm sure it will still rub with the spacers about 4 mm to stop the caliper clipping the wheel

And even if I do put 40s on it will be 20mm difference in diameter so will have a 10 mm gap and look higher I'm wanting rid of the spacers tbh

I'm planing on getting gaz coils next month or some b8 and proper xe springs and want it lower
