if its not been lowered i bet it looks gay.

any offroad 4*4 gen :D

on a serious note....

it probably will unless your acrhes are rolled, but its just got to be done really or no point having 17s

so why do you want 17s? so you can tell everybody you got 17s on your nova?

fckss up handling
slows you down
more expensive
more problems.

hmmmm i can see the benifits flooding in :roll:
