will 16 inch alloys fit onto a nova without arch modifications?
also does anyone know what size and offset for the tyres you should go for?

Many Thanks

they will fit on a mk2 with no arch mods

offset wants to be 45-49mm if am correct and the tyers want to be 195\45\16

you'd think that, well it is to a point. My wheels go up in the arches and i have a negative chamber which makes it worse. The 5 door still has the lip on the arch just that its a curve not straight like on a 3 door. If i had the correct offset wheels then it would fit perfect but nothing is ever that simple
