What is the wheel bolt pattern for the TC? 4 3/4 x 5?

[Guest EmmettTC]

5x100

Are you saying that the measurement is 5 x 3 15/16"?

Are you saying that the measurement is 5 x 3 15/16"?

Consider the METRIC system of measurement.

[Guest wheelsport]

100mm translates to 3 15/16". Most cars have a wheel bolt pattern of something like 5 x 4.5". The TC then is 5 x 100mm which is

smaller than most.

5X100mm is the almost universal pattern for most smaller front wheel drive cars that have more than 4 lugs, and has been around since the 1980's. You will find a HUGE selection of wheels for that size but need to pay attention to offset: center of rim toward outside (keeps lug nuts in normal FWD position) or inside lip (used to be called 'reverse rim' and gives lots of unsprung weight) of rim. You also need to check for size of center opening to be sure the car's hub will allow the wheel to seat properly. If you go into a wheel store asking for the SAE equivalent of the 5X100 they won't know what you are asking for unless it is for a big or very old american car or truck.

Offset should be 35 or 38, you can get away with 40 but that's moving the wheel pretty far in.  I had a set made back in the day thru friend of a friend kinda thing, they showed up 45 offset and were non returnable    I used some 5MM spacers but theres a scary amount of thread holding each lugnut on that way

You only need 3-5 threads or I think it's 1.5x the diameter of the fastener for safe engagement, typically.
