Default Newbie with p100

Hi have just bought my first p100 this afternoon and am already looking to make it look meaner starting with the wheels I understand that the 5 stud hub is the sam pattern as the transit was wondering how hard is it to change over to the four stud hub or is there any adapters out there on the market.

hi welcome mate u got any pics?

its not to hard to change over to 4 stud huds on the front u would just get them from any sierra really and all the brakes its the back thats harder as its leaf spings to change it tho u could just fire in a capri back axle and thats it got 4 stud huds on the back,

am currently doin my p100 and am puttin it to independent coil springs and swingin arms on the rear instead of the leaf springs and solid axle,

I could be wrong which is quite often, but cosworth powered transit I seen at ford fair had audi 5 stud wheels once over, so could you not find out if the pcd is 5-100 or 5-110 I could be wrong with the pcd figures i'm just trying to remember from when I put 18" rs4 wheels on my old A4

Just a thought, worth a look
