15 inch five stud steel wheels?

Postby Rifleman » Fri Sep 08, 2006 9:08 pm

Hi guys has anyone come across any plain ordinary steel wheels, not alloys that are 15 inch 5 stud instead of the normal tranny 14 inch 5 stud fittings?

How about Mk6 wheels! They are avaliable in 15 and 16 inch with the same PCD as the Mk5, might need different nuts though.

I was under the impression that mk6 wheels had a different PCD to mk5..

I've got 15in wheels off a Lada on mine but alloy!

I had Rolls-Royce 15in steels on my old Mk1 years ago but,

I don't think there are many Shadows in the breakers nowdays!!!

The Lada Niva is the same vehicle as the Tata 4x4.

NIE PRAWDA !!! a Tata 4x4 is not the same as a Lada Niva, A Lada is Russian and a Tata a Tandoori. If the Lada Niva wheels fit a Transit seen some nice alloys in Ukraine a few weeks ago on a new four door Niva and they only cost a couple of Hundred $$$ a piece. Interesting to see when the Ruskies start making the LDV's what alloys they make for them..

I think you'll find it's one of those things like the Kia Pride and the Daewoo Nexia! Tata bought the design from Lada along the same sort of lines as they are the same vehicle.
