I dont understand wheels and there PCD's. Can you make wheels with a PCD 100 fit PCD 108?

does this help you understand it ? linky


what wheels have you got and what are you fitting them onto ?

PCD is simply the stud spacing.
100mm is the distance between (Diagonally) opposite studs/holes. (on 4 studs, 5 studs is slightly more complicated.)

You can get such things as wobble bolts but I im not sure they can cope with 4mm difference. You could get them redrilled but your better off just looking for a set of wheels with the correct PCD.

Offset is the other thing, even using wheels with the wrong PCD then adapting them, you still need to be sure the offset is correct, or close to correct.

What wheels are they? I've seen quite a few aftermarket alloys that are drilled for both 4x100 and 4x108

They are Lenso RS5's i have not bought them yet, just need new wheels for my sylva striker currently have 17s on which it came with which are way to big.

thanks

^^ if I've found the right ones they look like 'multi-fit' wheels (i.e. more than one P.C.D. on each)

have you got a link to the exact ones your looking at ?

Lenso RS5 Alloy Wheels - 4 x 15 on eBay (end time 21-Nov-10 15:40:21 GMT)

they are but both wrong i think - may just scrap this idea and buy the right ones - a lot earier. any examples of nice wheels for reasonable price?

I'd don't think the 38mm offset will give you any room to sort it out with spacers - so I'd say keep looking

btw - peugeot wheels are 4x108 with a slightly bigger centre bore (you get wee spacer ring to sort that) and the offsets arn't far off on some of them either....
