what's the wheel PCD?

[65coupe]

I have a 2002 mondeo (yes I know...) and as recently as a month ago bought brand new 18" RS wheels and tyres for it.
Now I'm selling it, but would like to keep the wheels and put them on the Cupra (R) that I'm getting.

I don't think the PCD is the same, but I'm not certain. What is the PCD and offset for the Cupra?

Also, would I be able to have the hubs retapped and threaded to fit the Ford stud pattern, or maybe get spacers/adapters to fit the Ford stud pattern?

I know this isn't the best way of doing this but I'm going to lose a lot on the wheels otherwise.

Any ideas or suggestions??

5x100 IIRC for the Leon

Offset is ET38 for the Cupra R, can't remember what it is for the Cupra/FR...

i think the mondeo wheels are 5x108 and the leon wheels are 5x100. do you think the ford rims will clear the brembo calipers?

ET35 for the LCR

Should do - they're 18", but the PCD is wrong isn't it?
any ideas on retapping the hubs? Can it be done?

the only thing i can sugest is sell wheels on rs owners club they should make good money on there as those wheels are like gold plated rocking horse sh*t. to be honest never heard of anyone converting from 5 stud to 4 stud normally the otherway round. might be cheaper to get similar style wheels in 5 stud. or get in touch with demontweaks motorsport department as they might have info on hub conversion kits hope this helps

Not Focus RS alloys, they are aftermarket alloys called Focus, as shown on the car, here;

...and before this thread gets closed, this is NOT an advert for my car - it's simply illustrating my wheels and the problem I have with them!

Should do - they're 18"

18" means nowt the calipers stick out a mile on the LCR so choose carefully or you'll need spacers.

FYI on a set of Replica RS6 18" alloys I used 10mm spacers on an 8 inch rim and the wheel was just in line with the ach

you can buy a conversion kit that changes the stud spacing and acts as wheel spacers all in 1. but make sure they supply you with at least 2 bolts long anoth to go into the original hub. demontweaks will def be the best bet for this kit
