A Chevrolet Nova (1964–1981) uses a 5x120.65 PCD and a centre bore of 70.3 mm.
Any wheel must match the vehicle's PCD exactly: there is no tolerance, unless you use a PCD adapter.
Centre bore: the wheel must have a centre bore of 70.3 mm or more. If it is larger (as with most aftermarket wheels), add a hub centric ring wheel centre bore → 70.3 mm.
Fixings: thread -, tightened to 110 Nm. The nuts or bolts must have the same seat (conical, spherical or flat) as the wheel.
Vehicles with the same PCD and centre bore
Same 5x120.65 PCD and same 70.3 mm centre bore: wheels from these vehicles bolt on and centre on a Chevrolet Nova without rings. Offset, width, diameter and caliper clearance still need checking.
Choose the vehicle the wheels come from: we compare the hub, then each original wheel to the millimetre.
