Offset

Post by Xanthic »

Sorry to bother you guys again! Im looking to buy some alloys for my 406, I found this list of cars which apparently share the same offset as the 406? Does this mean I can take the alloys from any of these cars and put them straight onto my 6? (dependant on rim size and tyre size).

Dont forget the PCD-pitch circle diameter-108 cm-best to try them first for caliper clearance.

The bore's pretty important too!

There's plenty of charts like this on the interweb.

According to that one, you're limited to PSA group cars only. And you really do need to check they clear the callipers before parting with any cash.

Look at this site for Fitement:- http://www.alloywheels.com/
PCD - 4x108
Offset - 15 to 25
Bore - 65.1

Ford have a diff Offset and Bore to the 406, so you may need Spacers and Spigot Rings.

I've heard so many horror stories about spacers I'd be worried about using them.
