Has the car been lowered? Ought to be ok on 15" wheels though, if you stick with 195/45/15 tyres.

The offset of the wheel will also affect whether or not it fits - Nova offset is et49 so you need to be as close to that as possible really.

make sure you dont go lower then et 45 or you may get rubbing when you corner hard. stick to that and a 40mm drop on spax psx kit and she'll handle like a go-kart.
