114x4 PCD
AndyGT - 10/5/11 at 06:57 PM

I noticed that some Nissans etc have a PCD of 114.3 x 4. I am rebuilding a Trailer-Tent chassis as a box trailer and the PCD is 115.

My question is will these fit the trailer as the trailer has tiny 10 inch wheels with a low weigh rating and the car wheels should be cheap enough and have a higher weight/speed rating?

Thx chaps

4.5" was a fairly common PCD MGB, Austin Maxi and a lot of other BL cars.

The slack on the bolts/studs will soak up 0.7mm of misalignment.... I bet the tolerance stack on the wheels and hubs adds up to more than that anyway. Would be even better if the were hubcentric or you could get some hubcentric gap fillers made.

Use wobble bolts and ecentric spacers or spiggot rings and they will be fine.
