[dan45]

I'm thinking of getting some alloys for my minor, heard a few things about that even though there 4 stud the mesuarments between the studs is diffrent? can anyone clear me up on this one as I now of quite a few second hand 4 stud alloys going cheap, my cars a 1966 4 door btw.
thanks dan

the studs are 4 inch pcd which is 101.8 mm, only very early moggies had 4.5 inch pcd. The problem is that 101.8mm pcd measurement is not very popular, any more, so finding alloys could be more difficult ( read costly ) when compared with say 108 mm pcd which is the Ford ( and others ) stud pattern. Might be worth having a read of this previous thread..

The Mini was the last production car to use 4" pcd wheels. You need to find classic 4" pcd alloys on ebay, or buy a set from specialists such as JLH. http://www.jlhmorrisminors.co.uk/ They sometimes have 'deals', so it's worth asking. You must NOT try to make alloys with 100 mm pcd fit because they will snap the studs and may cause you to have an accident.

I got my alloys from Bull, v. pleased with them, perfect pcd, but you might need to lengthen the studs first for them to fit.

4" is 101.6mm ;)

Apparently some caravans still use it and they have may have alloys

yes that is right some newer caravans do have the same pcd you need to look for one that has a alko chassie but the alloys wont be cheap
