I'm not 100% on this, but I'd imagine that the larger measurement means the bolts are further apart...I mean...yea... I think its like millimeters from the center hub to the bolt..as in each one.

The larger the number in millimeters or inches, the larger the bolt pattern.

i mean whats the physical difference on the wheel hub? lets say 5x110 vs 5x108 are the bolts placed higher or what

the fuck are you talking about? bolts placed higher?

the only physical difference concerning bolt pattern is the spacing of the bolts.

and if you're going to try something incredibly stupid like trying to put a 5X110 wheel on a 5X108 hub or vice-versa, just stop. it won't work safely. it won't work period.

The higher the number, the further from center the studs are placed....

It's pretty self explanatory.

imagine it like this

5x108 - o

5x120 - O


if you were playing connect the dots with the lug holes.

The bolt circle always has to be on the center of the hub... Without concentricity, your wheel will spin like it`s fucking square. Your wheel isn`t any closer or farther away from the ground with a different bolt pattern wheel. The only difference is the distance of the studs from the center of the hub (the radius). A bigger number = a bigger radius, and assuming there are the same number of lug studs, the further they will be away from each other.

holes for the bolts are ovaled to fit multiple 5 bolt paterns... should be obvious just by looking at a picture.



on that note, slip ons are dumb. get the right offset instead.
