I am trying to get some brakes sorted for my Sagaris but I need to know the "PCD"

I have just been given the follwoing explination...

The term PCD stands for (pitch circle diameter) and is the diameter of a circle drawn through the centre of your wheels bolt holes. PCD is measured in millimetres and also indicates the number of studs or bolts the wheel will have. One of the most common fitment has 5 studs and a PCD of 114.3mm, hence the fitment 5x114.3

Now I am guessing I can try and work this out but if anyone knows it I could do with it please.

Thanks for your help

Paul......

(this will also help for some wheels I want)

Thanks

Yes, though if it's brakes and rims you're changing it's more than just PCD you need to consider. Offset and rim width vary by model, brakes need to fit within the rim diameter and have adapters made to fit. If you want some expert advice on this give Matt at Silverstone Performance a bell.
