hey guys,

ma mate has jus purchased a good condition XE esp 351, was a s**t manual but now worked C10 auto w/ high stall LSD etc, etc!

He is wondering what wheels will fit on his car? like will he be able to fit for example mazda stud pattern wheels?
I know that R33 skylines will accept the new mazda 6 wheels so i was wondering if ford share their pattern with any other manafacturers??

any help much apprecitated!!

Dave...

Stud pattern is 5 x 114... It's a very common stud pattern. However, you will find that most wheels will not fit properly due to the offset, they may have the same stud pattern, but the different offset will stop you from being able to use them.

Very late XB upwards and only because of hub size, nothing to do with stud pattern.
As for new rims, most of them are AU/BA offset which also suits Toyota etc.
He can run the late rims but will need adaptors to suit.

I will be the party pooper and advise that all wheel spacers or hub adaptors are illegal in "ALL STATES" unless originally fitted or a factory option.
