As above would these fit on to a good old nova?:-
Apparently they are speedlines of some sort

hmm if it is the offset what would it rub on? inner arch? or outer arch lip?
Outer arch, as ET43 will stick out further than proper fitment (ET49)
Arches will need rolling for sure. No doubt it will stilll rub then.

what would you do? in terms of them rubbing too much as i dont want them to rub over every slight bump my nova isnt lowered at all so it prob wont rub untill i lower it and what would be the maximum lowering mm and with the least amount of rubbing?
thanks for all the info!

i had massive 17 inch wheels on mine but had to widen the arch quite alot no rubbing tho i would go to a garage and ask
Hold your horses! ET43 offset isnt half as bad as it could be! IMO only minor arch work will be required, especially if you keep to a 40 profile (if theyre availiable on 16's?)
The important thing here is the PCD. Are they 4X100? What car were they on before?
