NO. The Nova rims might look okay due to the uni-lug bolt pattern but the issue you need to think about is backspacing. Go to my "garage" page and open up the picture of my Ranger and you can see the cars I have built from the ground up. I'm telling you DONT DO IT, go to www.SummitRacing.com or www.JEGS.com and look at rims there first. Too much positive offset (rim bolting face to outside lip of rim) and the lug bolts will shear right off at the first major bump. Check out the rims I had on my black '31 Ford 3W.
