5 stud measurements?
« on: 24 February 2009, 22:39 »
When I (eventually) change the brakes on my Vento I'll change them from 4 stud pattern to 5 stud. Just wondering what measurement the 5 studs on the mk3 are. 5x100? 5x110? 5x112? If they are 5x100 or 5x110, can you get adapters for 5x112?
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

^As above yes you can get adaptors to go from 5x100 to 5x112 but will cock up the offset.

I agree its pointless going 4x100 to 5x100 and then using adaptors to go 5x112.
