the PCD is how far appart the holes are appart, each car manufacturor has the own PCD.
also check the offset(et) as thats how far the alloy sticks out from the hub and if thts wrong it cud cause the wheels to rub, for a vauxhaul it shud be between 45-49et.
like suggested the best bet is just to try and see but im pritty sure ford has a different pcd.
