My Nova has had "Slot Mag" style wheels on it for the last 26 years, they are 14 inch rims. Its getting harder and harder to find 14" tyres with the right profile for the Nova, plus the wheel arches could do with being filled out more. So when an opportunity to buy some 15" Wolfrace Turbovec wheels on eBay came up that had the right size wheel stud pattern I jumped on it. They were in reasonable condition although one wheel had some corrosion and curb damage on the rim.
I chose to go for high profile tyres (215 R15 / 70) as the rims were still small compared to today's standards and I wanted to fill out the wheel arches of the Nova body as much as possible The before Look.....with Wolfrace Slot Mags The look after with the new Turbovecs . It fills out the arches better

David SkinnerI have been living in Singapore since 1998 and I only get to go back to the UK to work on my kit car once or twice a year, so as you can imagine progress has been slow. This blog chronicles the various jobs I do on the car each trip Archives
