looking at some new wheels....
17"
offset - 40
width - 7j
stud diameter - 4x100
tyre width - 205
profile - 40

will these fit my mk2 1.2 merit? or will they rub?
cheers, dave.

I'd say you're likely to have scrubbage on those.

Is the car lowered?

17's are no good on a nova without lots of mods to your arches, heck 15's with 50 profile tyres can some times be a ball ache!

Wont fit.

You may get away with ET45's but even then it'll be trial and error.
