Question: What tire and wheel sizes came standard on Capri?
Answer: The 14x5-1/2 wheel (both steel and geometric alloy) used a
P185/60R14 tire. The 15x6 three-spoke alloy wheel used a P195/50HR15 tire. The
14x6 five-spoke alloy wheel used a P185/60R14 tire. And the 15x6 seven-spoke
alloy wheel used a P195/50R15 tire.
The Hollander interchange gives this info on
wheels for the '91 - '94 Capri. I've included info from US sales brochures about
the years the wheels were available and on what model.
Online conversion site says: 4.5 Inches (bolt circle diameter)
= 114.3 Millimeters
To determine the bolt circle diameter on a four-lug wheel measure from the
center of one stud hole directly across the center of the wheel to the center of
the opposite stud hole. The measurement will equal the bolt circle diameter.

Question: I have a Capri XR2 with a blown transaxle and I have a Capri
standard parts car with a good manual transaxle. Are the two transaxles
interchangeable?
Answer: No, the two transaxles are not interchangeable without major
modification. At the very least the clutch in the standard is hydraulically
actuated and the clutch in the XR2 is cable actuated. The gear ratios are
different in the two transaxles and the half shafts are bigger.
