Does anyone know if the porsche 5 lug pattern matches up with the nissan 5 lugs? I'm not talking about the old wide 5 pattern that they used back in the 60's, (like on vw beetles from '67 back) bascially i'm strongly considering a set of phone dials for my 240 (you gotta admit that would look real nice) i dont know about their offset or anything yet though...just doing researchthanksast

phone dials off a 924 or 944? because the 924s have a 4 lug pattern. my friend has a 78 924 and his wheel are 4 lugs...

944, 5 lug pattern...The 4 lugs are interesting though, since my car's 4 lug right now...i've found some for 2-300 dollars with decent tires, a very nice deal imo, of course i'd pay shipping on top of that probably, but still...ast

Having the same number of studs doesn't mean it will bolt up. I know that current Porsches use a different 5 bolt diameter than 114mm. I don't knot the bolt patter diameter for older porsches, but I would check into this....Make sure it uses a simliar offset as well.

yeah, i know that 5 lugs doesnt mean they will bolt up (i've got some 8 or so inch wide wheels for my beetle, with a wide 5 pattern, there's a good 8 inches between the lugs from one end to the other) i just wondered if porsche and nissan used used the same 5 lug...I dont know about offset either, or caliper clearance (i would think porsche brakes, being freakin huge, would give me more than enough clearance, but you never know)
