I used to have slabs on my nova when a was running the gsi motor but since dropping a valver in it scrubs like a mofo on the front under lock due to the weight issue etc, im tempted to go back to 15s as it did drive nicer but i think the speeds look nicer?????

speedlines or softstars are the only decent wheel option for 4 stud vauxhalls

Softstars are on every corsa B and a few Nova's, avoid them like the plague if you want the individual look, could you not just buy higher poundage springs for the front?
