Hello,

I have a 1971 Dual Cab Kombi Ute and was wondering what the Stud Pattern and Offset size would be? as I would like to get some after market wheels for it.

Thanks in advance

PCD is 5 x 112 mm
Off set should be 41 mm

I am very keen to go to a 17 inch Early Streeter look for my wheel on the Ute. The only wheels I can find with the most common offset is 5 x 114.3 (Ford). It has been suggested that I can get the Flange plate drilled to accomodate in the front (Disc Brakes) and Im changing the back to a Disc Brake Set up.

Appearently the drilling of the Flange is straight forward and wouldnt cost too much, is anyone aware who can help me with this service in the Mascot area? also has anyone done this before who can comment or offer advise?

Thanks agian.

just make sure there is no welding/spot facing going on. that is strictly a no no in NSW. I gather the new holes are going in between the old ones. Also, just check that where they are going in has enough meat to accommodate them. sometimes there are webs of extra metal behind lugnut holes.

any engineering machine shop should be able to put the holes in.
