The Holden stub pattern is different.

Fords Stud pattern is the same but the offset of the wheels will be different.

But short answer is as above. Yes Falcon wheels will fit. Just make sure you check the offset on the wider rims.

hahaha both will fit.... if you know how ;)

my 20's were comodore fittment as the offset is much better than falcon cos when your slammed on 20's 10mm and the wheels wont turn

Commodores run 5x120 PCD, Magnas and Falcons run 5x114.3

So studs are the same on Falcons, but as stated, offset needs to be checked.

redrilled ftw!


You can also get multi stud fitment i think. A bit like the rotors.

ahh yes, but they can do it now so you cant even tell!

it used to be only dont to covered type wheels (where the wheelnuts are covered) but you can get any exposed wheel re drilled as long as the pattern is close as they use the same hole... eg range rover 5 stud wheels cant be done as the 5 holes are wayy further out ans maching out the stud holes still wont help


also i have mine done by the importer of B Boss wheels, and they still stood by the wty... blah blah blah not legal who cares as if 20's and over width rims and underload reted tyres are legal either :P


but incase anyone is interested in vic a 20x7.5" rim is legal on a 3rd gen, there is a 225/35/20 tyre now with a 95 load rating = legal and... same rolling damater as verada/awd = legal

so there is legal 20's if you want!

Ugh. Seems like to much fiddly **** just for some tires. Why can't they all fit on the same?

AU+ = 36mm offset AU- = 6mm offset
magna's = 45mm offset? or close too. do the maths.
or i can do it for you. AU+ wheels stick out 10mm than normal. AU- wheels will stock out 40mm! eeeeppp!:rofleek:

look up my thread about wrx stud patterns. in there it has haeps of diifernt car stud patterns. and liek everyone said ford rims will fir but watch out for the offset and commodore rims wont unless you do a andrew and get em re drilled..
by the way andrew what was the offset of those rims?

the b boss in commo fittment come in 45p and in Ford fittment only in 35p and if you have seen my car in person that 10mm just wont cut it!

The rims on my car are Ford AU-BF offset, the backs sit in fine, the front comes out a couple of mm.

i am currently running a set of the stock nissan r34 17" mags. they sit out a touch further, but it still looks fine.

Will BA 18" x 8 stick out on a 2006 380?

Legally no they don't fit and a snooty insurance assessor might void your payout. Also check the center hole matches the hub as the wheel studs are NOT designed to take the load of the vehicle it's very important that this is a snug fit.

I have Ford Territory mags on mine. 18x8 and offset seems fine. Might sit out 10-20mm further. Worth a look, i got mine for $150 second hand can't go wrong.
