car- nova c20let 6 speed converted too 5 stud
style- white with anthracite bumpers, no skirts
current wheels- 16" calibra turbo rims in gloss black
new choice (5 stud) can lay my hands on cheap
17" compomotive mo's, deep dish with brand new tyres in a grey colour
or
16" softstars in silver
im thinking the 17s are too much as its used on the track and strip too but they are soo cheap and look very good (are 17s really that bad?
the softstars are nice but enough money for what they are?
opinions please:thumb:

i reckon you should stay with what you have, quite like them on your car, plus you wont see many novas with them on

If you like the 17" compomotives then why not get those, and use your existing ones or a set of steelies or something for the track rubber?
I agree with the above, keeo what you have for track days and get either the 17" Compo's (Softstars look nice but can also be got in 4 stud so fairly common) or try and get some Vectra ST200 17" Speedline 5 spokes (Good luck with that!)
get the pink vectra wheels on jamie
get some Vectra ST200 17" Speedline 5 spokes (Good luck with that!)
I think someone on mig was selling a set of those the other week.

Looked into these for my latest project - as rare as rocking horse poo - very expensive if you find some - and 7.5 inch wide !!!!!!!!!
Although would be the ultimate look for a nova

Got to be the Mo's a proper rally rim that always look well no matter the colour.
