and the steering column as well

jag and hq are the same
There are so many people out there who will tell you that you can't. What you've got to do is turn around and say "watch me"

I concur. I have HQ on the front and Jag on the rear and they are indeed the same with a different size stud. To my knowledge also HQ and Chev are the same.

BMW 5 stud fit too.... but the PCD is different..slightly larger.. so...wheels sit on studs ...

I ran 16" BMW wheels on my last CF...Hq stud pattern all round

NOTE..... if one redrilles the beddy axle to a HQ pattern, one also has to mill the back of the axle so the studs sit in square at the back..... had to do that to both the axles i scored off ben a few weeks ago, pain in butt, but a necesary one, i used a grinding disc (carefully) to get it down roughly  then milled the last bit to a flat surface
