	Well, it seems there is not a lot about with them.... Transit, Transit, Transit. I want to see what was made over the years in either steel, or alloys for them. Please show me, and if someone has a decent set to offload, let me know as well please. Here are pics of my new rides Wheels, fitted, so look, and then show or let me know. REAR. FRONT.

	wow, Metzeler tyres, they stopped producing car tyres at least 20 years ago this will be hard, i think some pcd-adaptors will be the solution....

	There was a piece in Street Machine about this and I think that the conclusion was to use adapters! Unless you find some Tourneo rims! cgi.ebay.co.uk/FORD-TRANSIT-OR-TOURNEO-ALLOY-WHEELS-14-INCH_W0QQitemZ290194401839

	Now is this OOOFFFF-worthy on a van ?? 5x160, but will they fit my van ?? And these are a correct fit too (apparantly ) I can imagine spending a day cleaning them and detailing them..... they should fit the period look of the van.

	Here is a thread on some rims that are said to fit. I like some, and some look a bit gash. www.fordtransit.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=14913&st=0&sk=t&sd=a

	There must be Slot Mags out there and maybe even TurboVecs,loads of custom transits had them fitted back in the day. According to that site SlotMags are too rare and you've already posted a pic of TurboVecs so I'm being of no help wotsoevar.

	tremor63 said: There must be Slot Mags out there and maybe even TurboVecs,loads of custom transits had them fitted back in the day. Yep, I think they could work if detailed and painted correctly. Slots are apparantly not common. However I know of a certain member here who knows them intimately.... If in a 15 inch size slots could come into play. I like some moderns, but then there is a lot to be said for keeping traditional wiht the look I am creating. By the way, other than JamesP who may not be able to handle 5 stud through his guy, are there any recomended banders out there ? Who do not rip the arssse out of it price wise, and deliver a decent job banding wheels?

	I seem to remember that P100's use the same stud pattern so that might be of some use and they end up with all manner of wheels on them so there must be an easy solution out there.

	If Sierra hubs fit a P100 which normally uses Transit-style 5x160, will Sierra hubs not fit a Transit?

	P100s are 5x127mm (5"), not 5x160. I've just dug out the old SM that dealt with Transit wheels swaps where it suggests using an adapter from the front backwards - taking it from 5x160 to 5x108 (Volvo, Ferrari and various modern things!). The adapter in question is fitted to Mk3 Transits (the last RWD ones).
