I'm looking through Ebay to get a cheap set of alloys, but I don't know what will fit on to my Nova. I'm a bit of a wally when it comes to cars, so I need help. What wheel size can my Nova handle? I know 6.5" width is the max, and I'm not looking to go over 15".

When people say something like "205/55/15" what do they mean? Also, how many stud fitments would be '91 Nova have?

Thanks!

Novas are four stud(four bolt holes)
The offset is ET49(so you need wheels between about 45-49) 49 being the best fit.
205/55/15 is the tyre size. 205mm in width/55mm profile(height of the tyre)/and 15 is the size(15")

You need to look for wheels with an offset between 45-49 and four stud design. The PCD is 100mm i think, so look for 4x100 PCD design.
You should be able to get 15's on without arch mods. If they are close to the 49 offset.

Is your Nova lowered :?:

PCD=Pitch Circle Diameter, the space of the stud holes(the spaing in between the holes)
