FlyB0y Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Ok, I have been trying to research 14" wheels ... I have been under the impression that my brat has a 4 x 140mm pattern ... I went out to my car to measure for kicks to see what the equivalent is in inches .... turns out to be really close to 4 in by eye-ball ... now I look up some calculators to make an exact conversion ... it spits back 5.511 inches ... what gives? I then look on my calipers, and sure enough measuring on my pug spare, I have a 100mm space center to center between the lug holes ... did someone steal my subi hubs or am I some-how missunderstanding how wheels are measured? and no I'm not OK OK !! I figured it out ... good thing I am sober ... I just measured across the wheel instead of one lug to closest lug ... lol nm maybe I need a drink so I understand better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capn_r Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 You are measuring between to studs or holes next to each other. The 140mm pattern is the bolt circle, so you measure across two opposite studs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capn_r Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 I guess I should have re-read your post. You had it figured out. I guess I should sip a few, maybe I would pay better attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
