PCD is 108 by memory, pleasse correct ne if I am wrong. This size PCD 4 stud was used on Cosworth Escorts and Sierras. Used on Focus and many others. Quite a common PCD. Many cars with 4 studs run high power. |

But talking 4 stud here. I do understand the difference with the Falcon 5 stud.

A mate of mine was doing a 65 M'stang LHD....being a 200 six 3sp manual car, he left it that way,.....as well as the 4 stud pattern (drum brakes all round).....I told him at the start to up grade to 5 stud for better brakes, and bigger choice of wheels. He didn't listen, was cheaper to get all new 4 stud parts from the US, than to up grade. When it came to get 4 stud mags, there was only 1 set that would fit....and as it turns out, they didn't fit the front....they were 17 x 7.....hit the upper control arm, and something else. So, after much stuffing around, he got it converted to 5 stud, 4 wheel disc brakes, and mags that fit without hassles. He tried his 8" diff out of the 67 'Stang LHD he has, and it didn't let the wheels fit under the guards at the back...it's wider than the 65 diff.
