change the wheels to 5 stud

[strapping young lad]

Mine are 4 stud. They are 17x7 or 17x7.5. Got them from www.wheelmania.co.uk - they were only £700 with tyres. See my vbgarage for pics - they have quite a few options for 4 stud.

erm

all i see is a renault scenic?

I meant look at the wheels on it, probably wouldn't suit a Galant, but Wheel Mania have others which would.

search ebay for 4 stud wheels with 114.3pcd - there is tons of them - its a very common stud pattern

i have to disagree. they are quite rare. the actual stud pattern for our car is PCD 114.3. offset 35-45. bore 67.1

you will find the only other cars it definately fit are the EVO 1,2 and 3..the carisma, space wagon and thats it!!

the next nearest and only other one is the nissan 200sx BUT the bore is 66.1 not 67.1 so this would have to be drilled and i don't know of anyone that will do that.

i got mine of eBay for £101 + £40 p&p. they are mille millia HT3's and they came with tyres ( pirelli P7000's ).
the reason i got them so cheap is because they don't fit bugger all else!

look for evo 1,2,3 alloys on ebay and they will fit, they will be the most common on there.
i did see a lovely set of "group n" rallying compomtives new, no tyres. they went for just £250. they were superb.

it's definatly worth waiting for a good set rather than mess about with your hubs etc.

i cant beleive that 4 x 114 wheels are hard to come by!!

here in nz we have quite a bit of choice

[mitzylongboy]

they're not..exactly... but most are the wrong offset or bore. their are shed loads of 114.3 x 5 but few 114.3 x 4. if you visit www.rochfordtyres.co.uk you will see this. i did lots of research before i tried to bid on them to see what sort of competition i was up against. ford, rovers and vauxhall have similar fitments to say saab, audi or volkswagen etc so the conpetition was greater and the price was going up. the only reason i bought mine and didn't bid much higher was because i needed a pair of tyres for the original alloys and these were nearly cheaper than replacing them!!!
oh i didn't mention i found out the VOLVO V70 or S70 are identical aswell!! giving you much more choice!.... NOT.

them alloys do look good though mitzilongboy

but i dunno if bright shiny ones will suit the maroon jobby i own

i was told by my boss that darker allous would suit the car better

but he drives a civic sport (99 plate) with 15's too and they look small as well

Buy them have have them re coated/painted a darker colour.

[ritch_w]

got these after a bit of looking

might sell them if anyone is interested??


checking out the fitment guide here http://www.rochfordtyres.co.uk/fitmentguide.asp throws up a few other cars with the same pcd / bore / fitments as our galants

Yep red body with darker wheels does look good with a chrome or polished lip, like ghandas car or like what I had on my prev car HERE

and graphite 17s..

As Brad asked, these were the 4 studded 19 x 8.5 that I had on my previous car

i do agree. i want to get mine done in anthracite or gun metal grey. a local garage can get all the scuffs out and a dent plus re-spray all of them in any colour for £230 all in.

just to clarify - is that your current standard alloys - or whatever 17" alloys you buy?
