Default wheel sizing

hi

what is the stud pattern on a sierra sapphire i no it is either 4 x 100 or 4 x 108 could some one confirm this.

also what would be a good offset when buying a set of 17" alloys.

also what internal diameter should i look for.

thanks hope you can answer my questions i know they are simple but make all the difference.

4 x 108 is what you need.

With regards offset, this is dependant on the wheel width, not the diameter, but something around 33 - 38mm would be in the right ball park for a 7 - 7.5 inch rim.

internal diameter ? if you mean the spigot size that the wheel sits over, then the hub central diameter is 63.5mm.
