205/65/15 on a nova!?

[hubbstar]

My cousin has just broke a cavelier and it had a nice set of wheels on it.

Size is 205/65 (might have been 60 cant remember) by 15".

Realistically are these gonna fit a MK2 Nova Merit+? :?

hmm... tyres could be a bit big, novas tend to suit 195/45/15 better...

What width are the wheels? Has the nova been lowered?

[Ben]

prefered sizes are either 185/55/15 or 195/50/15 or 195/45/15

Will be pushing your luck with 205 let alone with 60-65 profile.

I got no idea of wheel width, not even my car lol, my bros but it drives so shite with 13" steelys on it. Ideally I'd like to put a set of SR wheels on it, but this Cav wheels are free lol.

Not lowered - totally standard.

Tyres are cheap enough just take the ones off and sell them and then buy some others that will fit.

Chavs did come with rather high sidewalls for the rim size, mainly down to being more comfortable on the motorway, you will definately need to come down on the profile to keep the speedo in check anyway.
