The Honda Civic is all about long-standing reliability and comfort, but both of those values can be undermined if you’re sitting on a set of low-quality wheels. Swapping out your old tires for new tires is just a part of being a car owner, but that doesn’t mean you can’t have some fun with it and pick some slick wheels.

Before you’re able to make the swap, though, you’ll need to know the 2007 Honda Civic bolt pattern. Let’s go over all the wheel specs you’ll need before we show you how to measure the bolt pattern at home for some DIY action in this

2007 Honda Civic bolt pattern

The

bolt pattern for a 2007 Honda Civic

is 5x4.5.

Don’t worry, we won’t leave you there. If you’re not sure what those numbers mean, you’re in the majority, so let’s break it down. Bolt patterns, or lug patterns, are expressed as:

number of bolts per wheel x diameter of the circle they form

That would then make the 2007 Honda Civic’s bolt pattern of 5x4.5 mean each wheel has five bolts that are arranged in a circle 4.5 inches in diameter. It’s fairly straightforward, but the lug pattern isn’t the only value you’ll need if you’re changing out your tires. You’ll also want to know the wheel size, stud size, wheel offset, center bore measurement, and torque specs:

Factory wheel size: 15” to 17” (depending on trim level)

Stud size: M12 x 1.5 (12 mm stud thread, 1.5 mm thread spacing)

Offset: 35 mm to 48 mm (depending on trim level)

Center bore: 64.1 mm

Wheel tightening torque: 108 Nm

How to measure your Honda Civic’s bolt pattern

While all the above specifications should allow you to tire shop to your heart’s content, we know some folks out there prefer to double-check their work. Thankfully, measuring your Honda Civic lug pattern at home is relatively simple.

Grab a measuring tape or ruler, then head out to any one of your Civic’s wheels. Start measuring from the outer edge of any bolt and bring the measuring tape or ruler straight across to the center of the opposite bolt. Since there is an odd number of bolts, you can just pick one of the two lugs directly across from your starting place.

Whatever number you get is the diameter. Pair it with the number of bolts on the wheel and you have a completed bolt pattern!
