Your wheel’s bolt pattern, also called PCD (pitch circle diameter), describes how many lug holes a wheel has and the diameter of the circle they form. Example: 5x114.3 means 5 lugs on a 114.3 mm (4.5") circle. Passenger vehicles commonly use 4-, 5-, 6-, or 8-lug patterns.
Bolt pattern is only one part of fitment. Confirm offset (ET), backspacing, and hub bore to avoid rubbing and vibration. If you’re changing sizes, plan with the Plus/Minus Sizing Calculator, Tire Size Comparison, and Wheel & Tire Size Calculator.
Use the correct seat type (conical/ball/mag) and thread pitch for your studs, torque fasteners to spec, and match or exceed OE capacity and speed: Load Index Chart and Load & Speed Ratings. If TPMS is present, review TPMS Service.
Shopping by pattern (e.g., 5x114.3) is a start, but the right wheel also needs proper offset, hub, and brake-caliper clearance. Our specialists verify every detail. Prefer turnkey? Choose a curated Wheel & Tire Package—mounted, balanced, and TPMS-ready.
Can’t find your pattern or need a specific drilling? Some wheels are supplied blank and can be professionally drilled to a specified pattern within design limits—ask us for availability. Contact Us, or start browsing: Shop Wheels and Shop Tires.
