PCD = pitch circle diameter
It's the bolt pattern of your wheels, like how pre 68's are 5x205 and later models are 4x130 _________________ 36hp '56 European DeLuxe oval, '70 bug 1835cc dual 36DRLA, and a '98 4x4 5spd single cab Tacoma |

I like the Rivieras I have, but I like the sprintstars better.
I had these Westerns on it at one point.

I've taken off the 195's on the front and replaced with 175's since this pic was taken. Lowered 1 spline on all 4 corners for a 1.5" rake. _________________ https://imgur.com/user/FisherSquareback/posts

I usually don't like spoke wheels BUT those I do like those Mainly because they are not chrome, I think.

They were rusty chrome 924 Porsche Zenith wheels, but I just sandblasted/painted since I wanted the painted Austin Healy sp? 3000 look. I might paint them again a little darker? _________________ https://imgur.com/user/FisherSquareback/posts
