Over at jon44w.com my local N Ireland car forum one of the guys on there has a bit of a problem guys and i need to see if anyone knows the answer as I'm stumped. sorry about the caps but just quoted what the guy said BOUGHT THESE RECENTLY. I THINK THEY ARE FROM THE 80'S, OR POSSIBLY LATE 70'S, BUT HAVE NEVER SEEN AS SET BEFORE. THEY ARE 5X108 AND STAMPED FORD. NEVER BEEN ON A CAR STILL HAVE THE PLUGS IN STUD HOLES. THOUGHT THEY MIGHT MAKE A GOOD RETRO LOOK ON A MODERN FORD. DOES ANYONE OUT THERE RECOGNISE WHAT THEY ORIGINALLY CAME ON? MK1/MK2 GRANADA MAYBE. CHEERS.  |

They are very smart indeed... I wonder if they would fit a Mk1 or Mk2 Granada?! What do you folks think...?!

Looks to me like philray's link is spot on, which would make them 5x114.3 rather than 5x108 (which in the 70s/80s was pretty much only found on Ferraris and Volvos, I think). They'd probably go on a Granada (5x112) with wobble bolts.

The holes look plugged up? They would look neat on the right car. This is what they look like "at home"  EDIT: lord, how hard is it to find a pic that works hot linked LOL |

5x108 (which in the 70s/80s was pretty much only found on Ferraris and Volvos, I think) That's an interesting nugget of information... If I had a 70s/80s Volvo, I know what I'd be searching eBay for just now. |
