Alloys

[Simon Meadwell]

How do you find out the pcd.
I have a chance of some alloys (used). They are 16” my steel wheels are 15” think they will fit
I have 2015 ducato A class

Stating the obvious perhaps, but make sure they are van weight rated. Offset is more likely to be different than PCD I think.

 

[Nirvanauk]

I would make sure they fit first. Mine didn't.

PCD is absolutely critical or you would only be able to get one bolt in if you have the wrong wheels. Measure centre to centre of two diametrically opposite bolts on a 4 bolt wheel.

If they are FIAT alloys the offsets are all the same.

The PCD is measured from the wheel center to the center of a wheel bolt then multiply by two.

That's a better way of explaining it.

I think most 5 stud PCD's are the same across different manufacturers as well, but not offsets hence my comment. So, it might fit on the studs but still be wrong.

Anywho, we're speculating as to what the new wheels are.

The two sizes are 118mm & 130mm

 

[Simon Meadwell]

They are offset what ever that means?

What make are the wheels Simon?

 

[Mikeco]

You might have a better idea if you knew what vehicle they came off.

I sold my 16” Alloys a couple of weeks ago. Whilst checking if they would replace 15” wheels I was told absolutely no. The advice was given by Duncan at Tyresave. I bought my new updated wheels and tyres from him.

 

[Simon Meadwell]

The wheels are Fiat the new black style ones.

Maxi chassis and light chassis on the Ducato are different PCDs

Measure from the centre of one of the nuts to the one next to it. If its about 69mm then its 118 pcd

 

[Bobby-gg]

What jezport said above.

And it used to be easy, as light chassis's were 15" wheels on 118mm pcd, and maxi chassis's were 16" on 130pcd.

Then, was it around 2017 I can't quite remember, fiat then sold the light chassis with 16" 118mm pcd!

You need to measure yours, and the new one's to confirm

Not sure why you quoted me. I haven't disputed this.

Yeah, it is possible to get 16” factory alloys on the light chassis on Euro 6 vans (mine was a Sept 16 build) and i have 16” light alloys And i understand they have the 118PCD scpacig as opposed to the 130”PCD spacing on the MAXI chassis.

The alloys are a subtly different design too and IIRC, the light wheels use a M12 bolt, whereas the MAXI wheels use a M14 bolt

The PCD and offset (denoted as something like ‘ET45‘) are normally stamped / cast on the inside of the alloys
These are 16” Light Alloys

 

[WESTY66]

And these are the maxi alloys, if I recall the offset on the maxi is ET68
