17" Halibrand wheels

I have a Sumo mk3 on Granada running gear( 5 stud) and would like to know exactly what I need to order in terms of stud pattern, off-set etc. for a set of replica Halibrand wheels.
I would like to order from the states so it's important I get it right first time.
Any advice ,or has anyone ordered recently rom the states? If so who did you use?

Regards
Mark

H Mark, I had a set of ford wheels from Image, they were very helpful an have all stud patterns and offsets on file. They cost me 1200 quid at the time and I would put money on it that they are cheaper than the states after all shipping costs/tax etc.

Found this company on US Ebay, they are cheaper even with shipping etc but as you say you will need to be exact with your order, why not give them a call. Remember USA is approx 5 hours behind UK time

I got wheels from the USA for my sumo, same as you ford 5 stud and got the wrong PCD . I thought ford 5 stud was the same but the USA is different. Had to get some pcd adaptors made from theis lot DGT INTERNATIONAL £200 for a set of 4. They actually make the wheels stick out a bit more and fill the arches as I went for 16" wheels.

Try this to get your PCD and find out exactly what the USA 5 stud s.

I've just bought a set of Classic 5 spokes in 17" from these guys. You cant beat their prices buying in the UK, even with shipping and 4% duty.

Welcome to Team 3 Wheels

There's a few people on here with their halibrands and they look the biz also, especially as you get the centre caps to hide the wheel nuts.

Getting the right PCD and offset is your responsibility so make sure you measure the pcd and offsets correctly.

Cheers,

Tony
