Default Help a moron with bolt circle diameters??
Okay guys, here goes another stupid question...

My Shell Valley wheel studs "should" have 4 1/2" BCD, right? I measured the distance between centers of adjoining studs and they were 2 5/8". I then measured one of my Corvettes and the studs were about (quessing here) 3/16" further apart.

So a stock Chevrolet should be 4 3/4" right? And if my Cobra's got a smaller pattern, it can really only be 4 1/2", right? It seems as if all I ever see advertised is 4 1/2" or 4 3/4"

Sorry for the simplicity here, but I'm looking at making a three hour drive to get a set of wheels and I REALLY want to be sure they're the right pattern before heading out.

Thanks, Tom
