Correct bolt pattern is 5x112mm. Centerbore 66.7mm or larger. Stud
size is 14mm. If you look for conical seat lugnuts, you may not even
need longer studs to compensate for the thicker mounting pad of alloy
wheels (compared to steel rims).
IIRC the offset in the factory alloy wheels are ET30 at 6" wide. Try
to stay close to that offset not just for clearance purposes but
proper loading on your wheel bearings.
Do not forget load ratings on the wheel itself. Most passenger car
wheels are rated for a much lighter load.

Brent, I have 5 of 14" aluminium rims that are currently fitted to a Syncro
that I am wrecking. If you are interested please give me a ring. $100.00 for
5 rims and any tyres on them. Phone 02 66828557. Paul Rooney.
