2005 Ford Mustang bolt pattern
The bolt or lug pattern for a 2005 Ford Mustang is 5x4.5. Of course, that might not mean much to you if you’re someone who is not already familiar with the bolt pattern equation. If you fall into that category, don’t worry! We’ll break it down here.
A bolt pattern details the number of bolts x the diameter of the circle they form in inches. So, a 5x4.5 lug pattern means the wheel has 5 bolts forming a circle with a 4.5-inch diameter.
These values alone though are not enough to swap your wheels. In addition to the bolt pattern, you’ll need the wheel size, stud size, wheel offset, and center bore measurement:
- Factory wheel size: 16” to 17” (depending on trim level)
- Stud size: M12 x 1.76 (12 mm stud thread, 1.76 mm thread spacing)
- Offset: 20 mm to 45 mm (depending on trim level)
- Center bore: 70.5 mm
How to measure your Ford Mustang’s bolt pattern
You should be able to shop for your new tire set with all the information above. But if you like doing things for yourself, you can measure your 2005 Ford Mustang’s bolt pattern at home. You’ll just need a measuring tool!
Grab your measuring tape or ruler or other measuring tool and head out to your tires. Choose any of the bolt sand place the measuring tool on the outside edge of your chosen bolt. Then you want to measure directly across to the opposite bolt.
Since the 2005 Ford Mustang has five bolts, an uneven number, there won’t be a single lug directly across from the starting lug, so you can choose either of the nearest bolts. Measure to the center of this opposite bolt and you’ll get the circle’s diameter. Add the number of bolts in front of the diameter and your bolt pattern is complete!
