Can anybody post the wheelnut spacing pattern for the P5?
thread and size of the wheelstuds would also be a big help.
I'm fitting some aftermarket rims & the machine shop needs to know the pattern to drill the blanks

Why don't you take the spare wheel into the machine shop? That way they will be responsible for the accuracy when drilling the blanks.

Its 5 x 5inch or the same as post-1999 Jeep grand cherokee PCD which is 5 x 127mm. Aftermarket rims are an extremely sensible idea on any P5  |

Thanks Roy, Stantodavies , the car is a resto project & has no spare.. & the machine shop is too far away to take a rim off the car and carry it to them.. thanks  |

I'd be interested to see how you get on and which wheels/size you go for. Would you mind posting up your progress or PM me ?
By the way, I posted up in 3.5 /mechanical about rolling radius and I posted up a table on equivalent tyre/wheel sizes. That combined with a tyre size calculator should give you the correct tyre size depending on the wheels you go for. From memory the equivalent to 6.7 x 15 crossplies was 215/75/15. I bought 225/75/15 whitewalls (as they were on special) but find they rub the brake pipe under the drivers side wing -against the subframe- on full lock right. It may be the rubber bump stop tabs need replacing but I need to take a look when I get time.
