The Mitsubishi uses a 114,3-5 bolt pattern, while the Vanagon, MB and Audi uses
112-5 pattern. It is only 1,15 mm off from each stud, but inspect it closely,
and you'll see the difference. Most Mitsus, Nissans and Mazdas uses the 114,3
(4,5") circle, in either 4 or 5 bolt patterns.


Besides Audi or MB, the only other car that uses the 112-5 pattern is the
European Ford Granada/Scorpio (known in the US as the Merkur Scorpio), and of
course, the Eurovan and Sharan from VW
