Alloys on Novas: What have you fitted past or present

[Southie]

The idea of this thread is to get as many different pictures of alloys that you've had or currently have on Novas, basically a database to show what has been on offer.

Get pictures up and the size and offset of the alloys will also be a massive help for others.

For the insane fitments out there then describe what you've done to make your alloys fit.

Discuss and pictures are definitely a must please ;)

Well get a picture up and get those out of the way then ;)

We don't need double posts btw, we need sizes of alloys that people are using.

Went a bit more unusual on my old one :p. Slight arch mods on one side to get it low enough.

Slightly different spin on the old Speedlines lol

Im sure they were 15x6.5" with a 45mm offset. Tyres had a 45mm profile and car was lowered 35mm.

I honestly cant remember about arch work as it wasn't yesterday lol
