Alloy Wheel fitment guide – your car listed by PCD (studs) & ET (offset)

Posted on 16. Jan, 2010 by in Alloy Wheels, Cars, Products, The Store

Looking for what wheels fit your car?

This is a beginners guide to wheel fitment. This is not a hardcore guide to every single car on the planet but a very basic guide for if you’re looking to purchase a new set of wheels for your car. If you have any questions at all on more specific fitments please leave a comment on the blog and we will be able to help with any information required.

Rim Size:

1) It is very uncommon to fit smaller wheels than OEM to your car however is possible and sometimes done in the stance scene.
2) Often you take the factory fitment size and you can add around 1, 2 or 3 inches.
3) Bigger you go, thinner the tyre profile and firmer the ride, the ride will be even more firm if you choose to go for a stretched tyre look.
4) When you go extra large (say 3+ inches over original), your handling will start to be compromised greatly.
5) Rim width is for people who understand what they want.  Basic setup is 15×6.5 17×7 18×8, can go wider, not skinnier. If you want to increase the wheel width for a stanced car you usually add 2/3 inches in rim width from OEM. For example on a Honda Civic instead of using 14×5.5″ wheels you would use 15×8.

PCD:

(number of studs and how far they are apart from each other in mm, ie. 4 studs / 98mm apart. This is shown as 4×98)
Easy!

ET:

(also referred to as ‘OFFSET’. Some fitments below don’t list it. No ET listed means most wheels will fit with a common offset) This makes sure your wheels fit flush with the arches or poke slightly for a stanced look if wanted and not too far in like a Lexus RX (this needs SPACERS guys!!!) Your car uses a unique offset, but it can be changed to suit your style in relation to the body line of the vehicle,

1) Realistically you can go 5-7mm outside these recommendations in direct replacements. You can go much wider with arch work too.
2) Always consult a technician if you are unsure, as there are often other factors that need to be considered.

Most importantly, have fun. Your about to make your car look 100x better. :D

Disclaimer. This information is accurate to our knowledge but don’t go and buy any wheels until you have double checked with another source too. POTN double check all orders and gurantee fitment, so it’s cool to order from us ;)

    Hi Kyle,

    The Laguna wheels won’t fit the seat unfortunately.

    The Laguna uses a fitment of 5×108 and the Seat is 5×100.

    hello

    do a 1998 korando jeep alloy wheels fit a 2002 mitsubishi pajero shogun pls?

    hi i was just wondering as to the highest rim size i could get for a nissan almera van 2.2dci 04 without compromising handling??? any help would be appreciated as i havent a clue really!
    cheers

  5. Simon Binner

    30. Jan, 2012

    Hi Allan,

    The stud fitment of the two vehicles are the same however the offset of the Korando is ET46 and the Pajero Shogun is ET20. To fit the Mitsubishi you would need 25mm spacers.

    Hi Niall,

    For the Almera van, I wouldn’t advise going above 16″ wheels.

    For the best handling I would advise 16×7 ET35-40 on a 195x55x16 or 205x55x16 sized tyre.

    Simon.

    would alloys from a 4 stud astra 4x 1oo i think fit a 02 4 stud polo?

  8. Simon Binner

    30. Jan, 2012

    Hi Richard,

    The wheels on the Astra will fit the VW Polo however I would not advise fitting wheels above 16″ on the Polo as it will effect the handling.

    Hello I’m unbelievably new to this, really want a new set of alloys fitted to my car Its a hyundai coupe SE 2.0 and its in two sections here 4×114.3 5×114.3 the car has alloys at the moment, what do i have to do before i buy? like the installing alloys for dummys guide?…

  10. Simon Binner

    02. Feb, 2012

    Hi Euan,

    Before you purchase the wheels just check and see if your wheels use 4 or 5 bolts to hold the wheel to the car. If it’s 4 the fitment is 4×114.3, if it’s 5 it’s 5×114.3.

    Usually when purchasing wheels (if new) you will receive everything you need to mount the wheels to the car, usually the wheels and a new set of bolts if required.

    Kind Regards,

    Simon

    hey dose a passat alloys fits on a peugeot 407 ?

  15. Simon Binner

    06. Feb, 2012

    Hi Niall,

    You could go up an inch no problems, I just advised 16″ wheels for the best handling.

    If you want the vehicle to look more sporty etc 17′s will be fine.

    Thanks,

    Simon

    Hi Rodney,

    What year is the Passat which the wheels are coming off?

    Simon

  17. Simon Binner

    06. Feb, 2012

    Hi Jimmy,

    You will need to check the stud fitment of the wheels that you’re getting.

    The Meriva has a fitment of 4×100 for 4 bolt wheels and 5×110 for 5 bolt wheels.

    Simon

  18. Simon Binner

    06. Feb, 2012

    Hi Collin,

    They won’t fit unfortunately, the Renault has a wheel fitment of 5×108. You will need wheels from a newer Ford Mondeo etc.

    Regards,

    Simon

    Hi
    I have got the chance of some RS4 19″ wheels 112 stud pattern 42 offset will they fit my Audi A4 B6 model 2003
    Cheers.

  20. Simon Binner

    07. Feb, 2012

    Hi Alan,

    The bolt fitment is correct however for the B6 A4 we advise you go for an offset between ET30 to ET38. ET42 may fit however it might catch the suspension strut. If you purchase a set of 4 5mm spacers/shims the wheels will fit fine.

  24. Simon Binner

    Hi Iain,

    What year is the Ducato van? I’ll need this to confirm the model then I can check the fitment.

  25. Simon Binner

    08. Feb, 2012

    Hi Jamal,

    A ’81 Caprice Classic uses a PCD of 5×120.65.

    Simon

  26. Simon Binner

    08. Feb, 2012

    Hi Richard,

    They won’t fit unfortunately, the C-Class uses a PCD of 5×112 (Newer VW Golfs etc Mk5 onwards). The Sprinter uses a PCD of 5×130.

  28. Simon Binner

    09. Feb, 2012

    Hi Ivan,

    What model of Ford/Holden were you looking to take the wheels from? The fitment will vary depending on the model of vehicle.

    Simon

    Will a set of 2001 Audi TT rims fit my 2002 Subaru WRX?

  30. Simon Binner

    13. Feb, 2012

    Hi Dillon,

    The stud fitment is the same however the offset is 20mm lower on the TT so the Audi wheels will “poke” from the arch, you could alternatively roll or flare the arches to fit them.

  32. Simon Binner

    28. Mar, 2012

    Hello, the stud fitment is correct, however the offset is very high on the Subaru so you may need to use 15MM spacers to get them on the Celica.
