Post by: mathewst on 02 August 2010, 12:21:46

Got the oportunity to buy cheaply alloys from audi, tyres are 215 55 17., 112
Can these alloys be put on mig?

Yes 112 is PCD,
Does the value of pcd have to be 110 to put it on the mig?
I read somewhere small variations of PCD can be used

All Omegas are PCD 110.

Whilst it is physically possible to put PCD112 on an Omega (just), they tend to run out of true, and vibrate badly
