i didnt think they made the superturismos in the right offset for a nova?? :roll:
Is the offset of them ET49, if needs to be ET49 to make sure the wheels will rub on nothing

Halfords r full of shite aint they. So if i plonked my super t's on without lowering it as much a 40mm all round then its safe 2 say that im guns b ok. the ofset is ok. nova i Et45 so nethin with a lower ofset will b ok. super t's r et37. so they mite rub on the arch but so long as i dnt lower it 2 much, then ill b safe.....? me thinks. u all agree?

I had a set of 5 spokes on my car before, they were 15" by 6.5" with a 38 mm offset, they didnt rub at all with no arch mods
I have 17's now and i dont think they rub.

am u sure
do you have to have your archs rolled wiv speedline allesios on
if you believe wot halfords and the like tell you thats funny.
e.g. im tying to get some 16s ages ago and ask for a price and if they do an ET45 offset
he tells me they do, so i say thanks and ill come back the next day..... over night i find out by doing research they only do ET38 (no good) so i think :S
go back in "you said they do a 45 offset for this wheel and its only 38"
"nah man they do a 45, all our 16s are 45"
"what are u talking abt not all 16 offsets are 45"
"yes dey are man 195/45/16"
"FFS you have no clue thats the tyre profile not the WHEEL offset"
this guy was a "ripspeed specialist"
i asked him if i cud Rip into him for it, asked to see his manager who was rude and told me they wud be fine, i laffed and walked out, i ended up with a ET49 16 inch wheel from elsewhere
Will
so they mite rub on the arch but so long as i dnt lower it 2 much, then ill b safe.....? me thinks. u all agree? Wb Taff.
Ahh... just take the back seats out if they do rub :D
