The Chrysler 300 is a well-loved and sought-after vehicle that brings a little luxury to its driver's day. The body design is iconic, but we know that sometimes, some customization really connects the car to the driver. One modification often made is a set of new wheels—maybe all blacked out, maybe upped a few inches in size, or maybe both.

Before you head to your nearest wheel wonderland, however, you need to know your 2006 Chrysler 300 bolt pattern. Not sure how to find that information? Just keep reading! A

2006 Chrysler 300 bolt pattern

The 2006 Chrysler 300’s bolt pattern is 5x4.53. If you’ve never even heard of a bolt pattern before, those numbers may be meaningless so let’s dissect them for a better understanding.

Bolt patterns, or

lug patterns

, contain two pieces of information: the number of bolts on the wheel and the diameter of the circle the bolts make. This means that the 5x4.53 bolt pattern of a 2006 Chrysler 300 tells us it has five bolts in a 4.53-inch diameter circle.

You won’t be able to walk into a tire shop with just the bolt pattern, though. To make sure your new set of wheels will fit your vehicle, you’ll also need to know the factory wheel size, stud size, offset measurement, and center bore measurement. For a 2006 Chrysler 300, those are as follows:

Factory wheel size: 17”, 18’’, 20’’ (depending on trim level)

Stud size: M14 x 1.5 (14mm stud thread, 1.5mm thread spacing)

Offset: 16 mm to 32 mm (depending on trim level)

Center bore: 71.5 mm

How to measure your 2006 Chrysler 300 bolt pattern

The information above should be enough to select your next set of wheels, but we know some of you will want to check for yourself. Happily, measuring your 2006 Chrysler 300 bolt pattern is quite simple.

With a measuring tape or a ruler, place the end on the outer edge of any of the five bolts. Then, measure to the center of a bolt directly across from it. As there are only five bolts total, there will be two bolts across from your starting bolt. You can choose either one!

The measurement you get from the outer edge of one bolt to the center of one of the directly opposite bolts is your diameter. That will be the bolt pattern’s second value, and the first value is the total number of bolts on the wheel. Pretty easy, right?

This app is great, but the customer service is even better! Not to mention convenient! My husband and I got the lowest rate (much lower than the rates I was finding online through my own searches), quickly, and pretty much all through text message! Thank you so much for a hassle free experience👍
