The 'Blade' is available in 6x6.5, which is 6stud x 6.5" PCD which is 165mm, so they would definately fit the 6 stud transits. :D

unfortunately I couldnt find any 5 studs at all that have the same PCD.

The PCD is 160mm, there doesn't appear to be any vehicle other than Tata that uses this PCD but you never know there might be something in America that uses it. America use Feet and Iches so if you are looking at American wheels you need to look for a PCD of 6 5/16 inches.

Typing at the same time there Rover, 165mm is the Land Rover fitment so I don't think those ones will fit.

A few years ago i worked in a foundary as a furnace man most of the alloy we used was recycled often we woild get loads of old alloy wheels, we x-rayed a number of wheels just as a matter of intrest out of 10 wheels we x-rayed only 2 showed no sign of stress cracking , the most common place this showed up was around the stud holes ,one wheel in paticular comes to mind ,a cobra superslot which had been re drilled to a diffrent pcd larger than the origonal 4 of the 5 stud holes had cracked right through to the edge of the wheel centre . If you are going to use old alloys get them crack tested first avoid redrilled wheels where the stud holes are close to the edge of the centre. On 5 stud slots the stud holes should be drilled inline with the centre of the spokes. Wolfrace used a diffrent center patern for land rover ,transit ,some 4x4 and some vw applications with larger pcd,s
