Default AU rims on Magna

I was just driving home from work and saw a Magna with theses style AU rims on it.

Do AU's and Magnas share the same stud pattern/offset?

Interesting, I never knew this. The rims didn't look too bad either. Hope my father-in-law doesn't find out or I'll find my TE rims on his Verada.

here ya go.

ba 17's on a late magna.



all 5 stud mistubishi's (magna, L300 van, etc.), 5 stud toyota's (camry, hilux, etc.) and 5 stud nissan's (200sx, skyline, etc.) use ford stud pattern.
au onwards fit because they are a 'positive offset' rim, using a similar front wheel drive offset as the others mentioned, but care still has to be taken, as the offsets do vary slightly between them all.

hope this helps.

I think you will find that Ford has been using the same stud pattern since the 67 XR's, and maybe the 5 stud XP utes and vans the same.
Omly the offset and centre hub size has changed.
The Mitus-Toyo-Niss cars were all 4 stud, and funnily enough the same 4 stud pattern too, and have only gone 5 stud in the last 10-15 years.
