dutchkev Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 as title really, i know the ABS would play a factor, but can the front ahd rear fucus hubs be swapped over? reason i ask is becuase i have found a diagram to drill out a 4 stud focus hub to a 5 stud focus hub, whilst still keeping the PCD as 108, but would be 5x108 as apposed to 4x108 http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/hh56/dutchkev/5Stud.jpg i know if you swapped over to the focus hubs, youd need the disks/pads/callipers etc from the 5 stud focus, also would you need to adapt the car to fit the focus callipers? this is NOT somthing that i am going to be doing - but i have wonderd this for a while and would like some cliarfication - as i think the 18" focus ST wheels would look the nuts on a MK6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danzetec Posted February 5, 2010 Share Posted February 5, 2010 Many other possible differences Kev and you could just drill the escort hubs and discs to convert them to 5-stud on the same PCD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchkev Posted February 5, 2010 Author Share Posted February 5, 2010 (edited) see, i wasnt sure if the hubs where the same size/thickness etc? also, couldnt you just buy the 5 stud focus disks? Edited February 5, 2010 by dutchkev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danzetec Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Yeah they would be fine, providing the PCD and hub centres are the same You could do but you wouldn't need to spend out if your brakes are good, just drill 4 holes and your done!
