"The alloys will also fit 5 stud cars". Hmmm.... don't think so!

Count the holes! They're designed to be all things to all men ..... or all stud numbers.  :y

They have 8 holes; they are multi stud fitment for say, 4x100 or 4x108, not 5x anything... surely?

How many studs/bolts does a Mitsibishi FTO have?  :-/ My brother's car came with a set of these multi-hole alloys. I'm sure they were 5  :-/  :-/  ;)

Not a cat in hells chance are any of those holes on a 5 hole P.C.D.
As Bumbazor says they are most likely a 4x100 and 4x108 P.C.D

Right! I've never had a set of them, but I thought that was the idea behind them .....  ::)

It is partially the idea behind them. If they are on those P.C.Ds then they will fit Vauxhalls and Fords so it makes them easier to sell.

They might want to start with their design department, those alloys look crap!

No, he's got it wrong . They are 4 stud multi fit.
I liked these wheels when I seen them on a similar car to mine , so much I bought a set with new tyres for next to nothing of E bay . Didn't use them in the end as I got a set of 17" Elites but split them and sold the tyres and wheels for a nice little tickle....
They're well made wheels .
The ones I had were 5 x 110 and 5 x 108 ( Ford ) 17" and went onto a Transit Connect  van .
Notice the ten hole fittment .
