Isn't 114.3 the metric measurement of the
imperial 4 3/4????
If not its bloody
close. And also if not why not? Did the japanese just go hmmmm, 114.3 thats a
nice round figure???
Technically my
Morris had the 4 3/4 cause it was british and made in the '60s but I never had
any trouble breaking studs or anything using japanese wheels from the
'80s.

Your missing the point, they
aren't 15 1/4", they're 390mm. i.e. a metric
size.
My fathers jag had them too.
With a 4 3/4" PCD stud pattern wheel - i.e.
imperial. Arrrrghhhh.
Makes about as much sense as
the much vaunted GM 6.35mm bolt.
