no, Mk1 is 6x170mm. May be possible to redrill them in between the existing holes though? But you would have to take the tyres off to do so.

Hi, i have made the exact same mistake, i brought a 2000 model rolling chasis, thinking the rims would bolt staright up to my mk1, no no no :roll: , i tried to re-drill the holes, but that turned into an aboslute nightmare, even with a Magbase drill, it was near impossible, i ended biting the bullet and having the professionally modified, which he cut the centre out and replaced it with a remade centre to suit the mk1 stud spacing, the weld job was done very good, but at just over $600 aussie later, it hurt the pocket.
