Default Will 5x112 ET24 wheels fit a saph ?

I was wondering if 8x16" wheels with 5x112 and ET24 will fit a saph cosworth. I know I will have to use some sort of adaptators but would it be possible ?

saph stud pattern is 4x108,offset should be et35.you get get away with 35 and a spacer or it will hit the caliper.
you can put et25 escos rims on but there is a slim risk on lowered cars it will hit the arches.

as for adaptors,no-noe i know of at all does a converter for a 5 stud from a ford pattern

Does not work five stud into four.

Check it.



No matter which way you rotate cannot work - therefore spacer need to be as thick as the studs are long.

ET24 no go.

dojj,youve done what?fitted 5x112's or et24's?
theres no way a 5x112 will fit,unless theres a made up hub adaptor.which they do do for some german cars but not that ive ever come across for ford.

et24 is a possible fit as long as its 4x108.as long as you are aware it is very boarder line with the arches

As far as i know mate no.

You would need say 10mm adaptors, this would bring the ET down to 14 so wouldnt go near.
