Wheels and Tyres questions: planning for replacements

[dwomby]

Thanks, Andrew. Those wheels would look great but I am afraid they wouldn't fit my car.

Looking at the parts book there are hub changes between models. The front hub parts are different and I think the evolution may have been but stand to be corrected:

408 5x112 PCD and 72.3mm cap diameter,
409 5x112 PCD but a smaller cap diameter (thus MB wheels fit)
410 5x120 PCD like Jaguar.

In any case, my search continues.

Thanks again.

Hi David
Have you considered hub centric adapters? These would enable you to use 5 x 120 pcd wheels

Andrew, thanks. I did look at that but not in depth. I will look again but the challenge is finding one that will not just change the bolt pattern but also allow fitting a smaller centre bore wheel without the adapter pushing the offset too far out and affecting steering.
