I have a toilet to replace with 4 bolts. It has N548 embossed on the lid and a 1986 date. The rear bolts are 9.5" from the back wall and the front are just a tad of 12" from the rear wall. It seems every 4-bolt post in this forum mentions the drain lining up with the rear bolts. If that's the case, I'm not sure what toilet options I'd have. The toilet tank already buts up against the rear wall. I think the N548 is a crane toilet. Does anyone have any experience with this toilet and know if the drain lines up with the front bolts?

Standard 12 inch rough toilet hopefully look at toilet bowl from the side youll see a bulge where the trap is and where it goes to the floor if it centers on front bolts its a 12 inch. Ive never seen the bolts only 2 inches apart

Do you have a picture of the bolts/base of the toilet you could share? All of the big brands make 10" rough in toilets. They are more expensive than any 12" rough in toilets.
