14" wheels on sierra hubs with disc brakes

Will 14" Alloy wheels on sierra hubs with disc brakes all round fit ok? I know 13" ones don't fit but would all 14's be ok?

Yes they were but the steels are very close to the calliper so was a little worried about alloys but should be ok.

Are there any 13" wheels that would fit???????

Got a J plate sierra 4x4 with 14" alloys as standard so any alloy 14" or over will fit providing they are for ford 4 stud fitment with the correct offset

Yes they will fit, The Challenger (blue Lotus 11 type thing we made ooo ages ago now)had 14" alloys and disc's all round, front ones were willwood and rears std sierra if that helps.

I think certain 13" wheels fit with certain offsets etc. 14" wheels are pretty much certain to fit.

I've just said this in another thread, but meh. I will be using 13 x 7 Wellers over Sierra front and rear discs. Either some minor caliper grinding or small spacers will be required though.
