I want to put some 15" wolfrace alloys on myH plate nova diamond, and i have been told to check what it states on my current wheel first

it says "165/65214/79T" what the hell does this mean?!
and also it states " ET 47.5"
" GM HN"
"5JX14"

does this mean the 15 " wheels will fit ok?! lol - i have no idea.

cheers.mark

thats the states of his wheel on his car at the mo irc epo. thats why they will fit well

5JX14 means 5 inchs wide and 14 inch big irc

if you want your 15 on will have to check what your 15's say on them.

unless ive got the wrong end of the stick on this :?:

15s will normaly fit a nova!!! i had a few problems but nothing too serious!

needed to extend an arch! didnt cost much at all! but make sure the 15s arnt too wide!!!

165/65214/79T that refers to your tyres, so isnt important as they wont be on your new alloys

5JX14 this refers to your width and diameter of the wheel!

dont go over 7 inches ore your guna have serious problems!!! i think mine are 6.5 wide! ill have to check!

if possible try to find a really good friend with alloys the same size as the ones your hoping to get and see if they will let you borrow them for a test fit!!! then get all your fattest mates into the car and check for scrubbing, this will also let you check for getting it lowered!!!

15's can be done with an offset of 35, but it can be a lot of hassle and your wheel bearings will go easier and handling will be poo. I'd just get as close to ET47.5 as you can.

I sort of see emphasis and shouting as a very similar thing on the net, although emphasis seems to put across a speaking loudly/shouting and a raising intonation on words. So !!!!!! is probably more annoying than CAPS LOCK imo. Apology accepted though :wink: :lol:
