original superbug wheels are 15x4" and stud pattern is 4x130
72 or 73 on they went 4.5"
the only legal way to change the pattern is to have a machine shop fit press in studs
ive changed mine to 4x100 which is 90% of the small/mid size car market
but supers its hard to fit much cos of the spings u cant go wider than 5.5" unless u get custom narrow coil struts

i had access to the right machinery so i did it myself and studs were about $60 so cant comment on the cost
but it depends what pattern u wanna go
most 5 stud require u to buy new blank drums and discs which would cost abit more

i just replaced front discs with ford stud patten, the cost of discs wheel bearings seals and caliper brackets was $500 from Shermans in Qld, nice product well finished, rear conversion to discs and ford stud patten will probally end up around the same but using new ford rotors and getting some machinning done, thats about the cost if you want to go discs of course
