Ford Mustang bolt pattern — frequently asked
What is the Ford Mustang bolt pattern?
5x114.3, which is 5x4.5 in inches, on every Mustang generation in our database (1994–2024).
Do all Mustang model years have the same bolt pattern?
Yes, across 1994–2024: 5x114.3. But stud thread or lug torque differs between generations or trims, so match your year and trim before buying nuts or torquing wheels. Years outside 1994–2024 are not in our database and are not covered by this answer.
What is the S550 / S650 Mustang bolt pattern?
The 2015–2024 Ford Mustang S550 / S650 bolt pattern is 5x114.3 (5x4.5), five lugs on a 114.3 mm pitch circle.
What is the S197 Mustang bolt pattern?
The 2005–2014 Ford Mustang S197 bolt pattern is 5x114.3 (5x4.5), five lugs on a 114.3 mm pitch circle.
Is the Ford Mustang 5x114.3 pattern the same as 5x4.5?
Yes. 5x114.3 is the metric notation and 5x4.5 the inch notation of the same bolt pattern (114.3 mm ÷ 25.4). Every vehicle on it is listed on the 5x114.3 pattern page.
Will 5x115 (5x4.53) wheels fit a Mustang?
No. The Mustang is 5x114.3; 5x115 is 0.7 mm larger and not interchangeable — the two are so close a tape measure cannot tell them apart, which is exactly why they get mixed up.
Will 5x112 (5x4.41) wheels fit a Mustang?
No. The Mustang is 5x114.3; 5x112 is 2.3 mm smaller and not interchangeable.
Will 5x110 (5x4.33) wheels fit a Mustang?
No. The Mustang is 5x114.3; 5x110 is 4.3 mm smaller and not interchangeable.
Will 5x120 (5x4.72) wheels fit a Mustang?
No. The Mustang is 5x114.3; 5x120 is 5.7 mm larger and not interchangeable.
Which other vehicles use the same 5x114.3 bolt pattern as the Mustang?
In our database: Jeep Wrangler (not yet verified), Toyota Tacoma (not yet verified), Ford Ranger, Honda Accord, Ford Explorer (not yet verified), Honda Civic (not yet verified), Honda CR-V (not yet verified), Toyota Camry (not yet verified), Toyota RAV4, Toyota Highlander (not yet verified), Tesla Model 3 (not yet verified), Tesla Model Y (not yet verified), Subaru Outback (not yet verified), Subaru Forester, Nissan Altima (not yet verified), Hyundai Tucson (not yet verified), Nissan Rogue (not yet verified), Subaru Crosstrek (not yet verified), Kia Sportage (not yet verified), Nissan Sentra (not yet verified), Honda HR-V (not yet verified), Hyundai Elantra (not yet verified), Toyota Sienna (not yet verified), Mazda CX-5 (not yet verified). Same pattern is not the same wheel — center bore and stud thread still have to match; see the 5x114.3 pattern page.
What is the lug nut torque for a Ford Mustang?
2015–2024: 150 lb-ft; 2005–2014: 100 lb-ft; 2004: 98 lb-ft; 1994–2003: 98 lb-ft. Use a torque wrench and the manufacturer figure for your exact year; aftermarket wheels may specify their own.
