Just got myself a Reliant Scimitar GTE 1978 SE6A. What stud pattern (PCD) are they please? I asked one guy and he said "same as the stag mate". But i don't know what they are either....  ;D So does anyone know the scimitar pcd and what other cars have the same please? Thanks for any help. ;D |

Seth is right.
4x4.5" AKA 4x114.3
That's TR6, MGB, A60, Lotus (Eclat) as well as most 4 stud Toyotas and Nissans from before around 1980 and a few since. There's quite a bit of FWD stuff too (Larger Hondas + equivalent Rovers, , Nissan Primeras/Bluebirds) but there'll be offset issues with any of those for sure.
Basically, even though all the 'normal' people think that it's an unusual PCD, it's actually one that offers loads of choice!

just find the wheels you like with the correct offset and get them re-drilled to suit by a reputable engineering company. failing that i have some 17s that will fit but the ride quality is poor (thats why i took them off my nissan)

Hiya BigSteve, Standard Scimitar wheel PCD = 4x4.5" (114.3mm) I think you will find that Triumph stag wheels have a different offset. Triumph TR6 wheels will fit better. I had 15" x 6" TR6 steel wheels when I first bought my Scimitar back in 1998. Standard Scimitar wheel size is 14" x 5.5". Wolfrace slot mags were fitted to later cars (14" x 6"). I have 15" x 7" wolfraces on my Scimitar now (although I had to use spacers at the front as the offset was different). Here is a selection of wheels fitted the Scimitar GTE's: Wolfrace 14" x 6" GT Wheels (Known as Princess Anne Alloys) TVR Alloy Wheels (not sure of make/size etc) 5 Spoke Revolution Alloys Minilite style Alloys I think the biggest wheels you will be able to fit is 16"? You will have to check first to make sure they clear the supension/wheelarch etc!! Ask the question on the Yahoo reliant scimitar discussion forum: autos.groups.yahoo.com/group/ReliantScimitar/Best wishes Scimmie |
