So is that stud pattern really .02mm different - or is there some rounding? The Offset - would that mean that the wheels would stick inward too far and hit the top suspension arm - or stick out slightly further? Would they fit?

Falcon stud pattern is 5 x 114.3 pcd (pitch circle diameter)

Offset for AU-BF sedans is +36, so +38 is a tiny difference that means they will be wider inwards (towards the brake disc) by 2ml.

Just remembered, check the centre hole diameter. You may need a fitting ring to make them hub-centric (they should sit on the centre ring for support, not on the studs). I can't remember the standard centre diameter.

Thanks for that - I have asked for a measurement on these wheels, and will measure one of mine.

Whoops - sorry that meant to read 5 X 114.3 :censored:

I reckon those wheels would fit fine. They are only 18 x 8.5's and the offset should be ok.

I have 20 x 8.5 on the front and they don't scrub or rub on anything. Not sure of the offset however.

I didnt think to check forums, but I got 18 x 8s with a 35 offset because I was worried the 8.5s wouldnt fit given the sfa clearance on the inside

+38 with 20x8.5 have rubbed (front) on one xr6t and not on another.....I think it's touch and go. Best sticking with a +35 (with 8.5" wide rim) offset for the front as these are common and fit fine.
