    yeah will be close but might get away with it if there rolled aswell? Ive had few Novas and some are just different to others, had wheels on one that were no problem yet on another they scrubbed. Looks good mate, love Novavans

    the arches are starting to scab anyway so might as well roll them when I sort the other bits of paint that need doing

    i think thats right, or the fact there getting on a bit now and stuff moves - especially if the car has been crashed at some point

    same with the astra's, 9 times out of 10 only one side will catch

    i'm gonna start on it at the weekend, I don't want to lower it too much cos it'll be lugging engines and my tools about for the next few months. i've also got a pair of 256mm dics and calipers from an astra GTE16v i'm breaking might fit them as the standard brakes are tiny and they've seen better days. the car had been stood for 6 months and when I took the wheel trims off loads of spiders were living in there..still itching now just at the thought
