Hi Guys,
Can someone identify my trailer rims, they are ROH rims with no identifying marks but the studs are 65mm centre to centre.
Can anyone help. I need a spare.
Thanks
Geoff

OK, I just went and measured centre to centre of adjacent studs on my ol' box trailer (w/- early Holden rims), and got within a pussy-whisker (that's a cat's whisker!) of 65mm...
Same dimension on a Ford hub I have in the shed, is 67mm, so on that basis, I'd say you have Holden rims..
The size of the studs is a good indicator.. typically, Holden used 7/16" studs, while Ford used 1/2"
Be aware that Holden changed the PCD (Pitch Circle Diameter) on their hubs/wheels sometime around the HK era if I recall correctly..
apparently the (incorrect) rims will go on the hub, but the studs will not be
centered..
Hope this is of some assistance..
Regards, Ed C
