Can anyone tell me If any 13 inch rims out there fit straight on to my 1951 fx ute. It has it's original stud pattern with 15 inch rims at the moment. I've heard LJ torana rims fit but want to hear it fro someone who's done it.

All rims from 48-215 to HG and Torana except L34 and A9X have the same stud pattern.

The PCD is 4.25" or just under 108 mm.

Wrong info - 48-55 have different Stud patterm - I have a single" rim to suit but once you stick the hub cap on it is nearly impossible to get it off again!!

I found this post on oldholden.com and it appears that FX-J had their own stud pattern on 15" rims. The rest up to HQ and most Toranas have the same pattern with different wheel diameters. Im not sure what the hub cap reference above is??

Why not run with the original 15" widened to 6" with the original hubcaps?

Go the EK hb and brake route. Its an easy fix and you get a minor brake upgrade in the process. EK brake drums are a lot easier to get off too. FC to HR rear end will also fit with no mods. If you want to run a booster CRS have a kit to fit Torana discs t
