I want a bigger choice of wheels for my connect, ideally i want some Compomotive MO's.

the choice of wheels for the 5 stud pattern is small so i want to convert to 4 stud.

What parts do i need ?

Will the hubs from a Focus Zetec fit the front, what about the drums on the rear - which car will i need them from ?

Don't want to go for a rear dics conversion, no need for that.

So what do i need to change from a 5 stud to 4 stud keeping the drums on the rear.

cheers

Andy.

 

Would it not be easier to convert if to 5x112 loads of wheel options available

i don't know, whats involved in this ?

5x112 what wheel options are there ?

5 x 114 is more popular - jap car fitment ?

 

Damn double posting phone.....

 

Volvo use 5x108 if you're interested. Saw a connect on some old T5 alloys a while ago, suited it really well.

 

Don't really want volvo wheels, i like the compomotives and such like.

So can anyone help me here ?

To convert my Connect to Ford 4 stud what do i need ?

1) 2 front hubs - WHICH CAR DO I GET THEM FROM
(can i keep my Connect original driveshafts ?)

2) 2 rear hubs / drums - WHICH CAR AND WILL I NEED WHOLE BRAKE ASSEMBLY ?

3) 2 front discs


CAN ANYONE SHED SOME LIGHT ON EXACTLY WHAT I NEED TO GET ?

cheers

Andy

 

anyone ?

 

Hi mate you'll need to go to a scrap yard with someone breaking a st170
Take the front hubs with calipers etc
Get the rear hub and calipers, the rears are straight bolt on and plus it's a disc brake setup on the back, so will look better
In regards with the front you may have an issue with fitting your drive shaft not sure, you'll need to find out if there's a difference in splines in the cv joints
Hope this helps

 

would standard focus ones fit

 

rs front hubs fit (the actual hub part, remove the bearing and just change the hub, keeping your connect knuckle) and your shafts should be fine with them..

but regarding the rear im not sure, limited really unless you go for a disc setup at the back


but surely theres plenty of wheel choice since whatever fits on a focus mk2 also fits a connect...
