Which way do you measure a wheels pcd??

sorry to appear a dumb woman!

 

middle of bolt hole to middle of bolt hole on 4 stud- easy to do
If it's 5 hole let me know.....and have a calculator ready

 

Middle of OPPOSITE boltholes

 

 

 

If it is for your Cossie, it is 4 x 108mm...

 

Easiest way to accurately measure 4-stud PCD is leading edge of stud hole to trailing edge of opposite stud hole.

As Mike says, 4-Stud Fords are 4x108.

 

in case you don't know what it is, it stands for Pitch Circle Diameter and is the distance from the centre of the wheel to a circle that runs around through the centreof the bolt holes.

hth

as already said, it's 4 x 108mm on virtually all fords except granada, scorpio etc that have 5 bolt holes.

 

The wheels are 18" multifit if that makes any difference?

 

I've got multi fits on mine Nik, they're designed to fit different cars, hence multi fit, Mine have pcd's of 4x108 (ford etc) and 4x100 (VW etc).
It should say somewhere on the rim what the pcd is, unless you can test fit one to make sure they fit.

 

Can't find it on the wheel anywhere. I had these on my cossie...yep tis true!! mainly at the time a case of having to! wheel clearance was fine...probably due to the fact my car has aspirations of being a vauxhall Frontierer after having such a close relationship with one last year!! ( anyone got any reasonably priced lowering springs!!?)

But the bumpy Island roads offered far too much competition!! lol!

So I'm selling them, and have been asked stupid questions like pcd! and will they fit on my Rover 400!

hence the thread!

 

Here ya go Nik, this should have all the pcd''s ya need so you can advise people what will and won't fit

Nik...dont be sorry for appearing dumb...you cannot help it

 

Generally multi fit wheels are as follows
4x108/ 4x114.3 (ford and early jap)
4x100/ 4x108 (rover, honda, mazda etc And ford)
That will not help you.
Tell me the wheel and all codes & markings from the back.
Rover and ford have different centre bores aswell so you'll need a set of spigot rings to rover (56.1 or 64.1mm) to fit in the wheel to centralise them on the car properly.

 

Phil...please behave long enough for me to conduct a serious albeit trivial thread, and then I will devote so much more time to ridicule you in the other one! promise!


I will have a look at the wheels later and post everything I can find on them, in fact if my blonde, female, insignificant brain will allow me to remember I'll charge the batteries for the digicam and take a pic!
