Will 6J X 15 wheels, 195/50/15 tyres fit on a Nova

[Nova_Newbie]

Seen some 6J X 15 wheels for a vauxhall, didn't know whether they would fit with 195/50/15 tyres on.

thanks for your help

[Jack]

is the car lowered, and do you know the offset of the wheels? 6" wide should be ok though I'd have thought

[nathan.]

what offset are they.
my wheels are vauxhall 6Jx15 with 195/50/15. they fit fine
go for 195/45/15 though

Sorry, I don't know what you mean by offset, the tyres are as good as bought and I'm picking them up monday with wheels. The suspension is from a Nova GSI, not lowered apart from the standard height the GSi suspension gives, Cav SRI calipers & discs, 14" cav SRI steel rims.

these are the wheels

if it helps! this is the description "SIZE 6J X 15",ET 49,4 X 100 FOUR STUD FITTING"

the ET49 is the offset and this is bang on for nova

they will go on perfectly

[Jack]

Offset is expressed as ET, which stands for the german Einpresstiefe... which literally translates as 'insertion depth' :o


Bear in mind having those 195/50/15 tyres on will put your speedo out a bit, although by how much would depend on someone telling me what standard nova tyres are... lol

:D Thanks to everyone for their advice, I'll go for the new wheels. if I manage to get them I should have them on for the end of next week, I'll get some updated piccies put on of them.

Nice wheels them!
Look well on a Nova.

I asked the seller if their wheels would fit with my tyres, they replied "NO,YOU WOULD NEED 195/45/15 TO FIT A NOVA."

:?: :?: :o

I guess, you lot know your novas, I'll risk it an give 'em a go!

1d 22h 33m left!

The only difference between 195/45/15 and 195/50/15 is the height of the tyre

[Nova_Newbie]

surely the only thing that could sang would be the wheel turning in the front arch then, I'm confused as the tyres I'm buying are on rims, I just prefer these others.

195/50 15" x 6" 49mm
