Manta Wheels on a nova??

[mattyd81]

Is it possible to fit manta wheels to a nova?? 15 inch?

I thought Manta wheels were 14"? PCD is 4x100 like the Nova, but not sure of the offset.

[edit] Just had a look on ebay, there's a couple of sets on there, one which lists the offset as et30 - which is waaayyy out for a Nova. :(

I've had Manta wheels on my nova, and they're not that bad. Yes the offset is small, so you'll need to grind the lip in the rear arch right back to make sure they won't rub. Other than that, fit a decent set of 195-55-14's and you'll be laughing! 55 profiles give a flatter sidewall, more precise handling and eliminate rubbing. The reduction in rolling radius has little effect on the speedo.
Also, unlike nova 3-spoke wheels, you can fit cavvy SRi brakes inside manta wheels, a cheap and very effective brake upgrade.

id really shy away from manta offset wheels. i put a set of "std" 14" manta alloys on my std sus'd nova and if srcubbed like feck with that, infact the tyre stuck outside the rear arch on one side lol.
