How to Measure the 6x120 Bolt Pattern
For an even-number lug pattern, measure from the center of one wheel stud to the center of the stud directly opposite it. That diameter is the PCD.
Because small measurement errors can lead to the wrong wheel, use the vehicle or wheel manufacturer's specification whenever possible.
Does a Matching 6x120 Bolt Pattern Guarantee Wheel Fitment?
No. Bolt pattern is only one part of wheel compatibility. You must also check center bore, wheel diameter, wheel width, offset/backspacing, brake clearance, lug-seat/thread hardware and load capacity before installing a wheel.
Check Your Vehicle Before Choosing Wheels
Use the vehicle fitment finder for vehicle-specific specifications, and use the wheel offset calculator to understand position and clearance changes.
