Hi,

Do you still have these rims/tyres?

If so, do you know if they would fit a vk commodore?

Cheers

Neale, for future reference Falcon rims will not Commodores because the pitch circle diameter of the wheel studs is different. Falcons (since XR in 1968 I think) are 5 on 4.5" or 114.3mm, which for at least 15 years is also Camry size, Commodores have always been 5 on 120mm. Old Holdens (from HQ I think up to HZ) were 5 on 4.75" which is almost 120mm but isn't the same. The wheels look like they fit but the wheel nut doesn't sit in the taper properly and is not safe to use. Camry wheels have a smaller diameter centre hole so won't fit on a Ford hub. Most wreckers would be knee deep in Commodore rims in any number of different sizes but all with the right PCD.
