Car Forum / MINI / February 2005Bolt pattern
Can't get out to my mini to get the bolt pattern off it anyone know off hand what it is. Thanks all James K > Can't get out to my mini to get the bolt pattern off it anyone know off hand > what it is. Well, there are two at the front of the front subframe, then either two or four at the tops of the towers, then another four at the back of the front subframe, there there are some more that hold the seats to the body.... 8-P OK, assuming you mean the wheel studs, they're 4 studs on 4" pcd, which is the same as Morris Minors, Majors (UK: Wolsely 1500/Riley 1.5) and four cylinder Holden Toranas from HA through LC and LJ to TA (UK: Vauxhall Viva). If you're looking at wheels, the offset needs to be right too. Fit wheels with the wrong offset, particularly to the front, and you'll get all sorts of evil handling problems under power, under brakes and on uneven roads. > OK, assuming you mean the wheel studs, they're 4 studs on 4" pcd, which > is the same as Morris Minors, Majors (UK: Wolsely 1500/Riley 1.5) and [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > all sorts of evil handling problems under power, under brakes and on > uneven roads. The studs are 3/8 UNF and you need to use the correct nuts for the wheels. The seat design is critical to them staying tight.

Ahh yes, I should have mentioned that. The cone angle of the wheel nuts varies for different wheels. Minors and Vivas use a steeper cone angle than Minis, so get Minor nuts for use with those wheels. |
