17" on a nova look awful in my opinion.

Pics of your car?

These are MiM raffinos mate.. prob the nicest looking alloy on a nova and much sought after.. Ive had 2 sets of speedlines before but the raffinos are wat ive always wanted.. im well chuffed..

heres a picture of how my nova looks.. the speedlines are gone to be replaced by the raffinos..

I first saw these on a nova in approx 1995 and they are one of the best looking rims for a nova imo, very hard to come by and an excellent find!!!

Kieth robinson was out there trying the wheels for size on his GTErep... im sure he'll be throwing a few pictures up when he gets home.. they look really well on his motor..

Corsa looks good for them, love the moody black Morette's, they match the tyres!

Lol, the biggest wheels i like on a Nova are 16's and i still think there too big lol, not to my taste either, i like to be able to lower my car without any arch mods to fit the wheels lol.

You dont need handling when nursing it over speed bumps down at the drive in!

lol just arches big enough to fit a jumbo jet in!
Put some 14's on the front and it'll look like a tractor
