2012 Toyota Tundra bolt pattern

The bolt pattern of a 2012 Toyota Tundra is 5x5.9. Let’s go over these numbers to give you a better understanding of the bolt pattern formula. Bolt patterns, also referred to as lug patterns, are typically expressed in the following way:

# of bolts x diameter of the circle they form

A 5x5.9 bolt pattern means that each wheel on your Toyota Tundra has five lugs, set in a circle 5.9 inches in diameter.

If you are interested in doing a complete wheel revamp, it could be helpful to know more than just the lug pattern. Below are the stud size, wheel offset, center bore measurement and torque specifications for a 2012 Tundra:

Factory wheel size: 18”

Stud size: M14 x 1.5

Offset: 18 to 50 mm

Center bore: 110.1 mm

Wheel tightening torque: 131 Nm

How to measure your Toyota Tundra’s bolt pattern

The above specifications should be more than enough information needed to change out your wheels, but if you want to calculate the bolt pattern yourself, we have the simple procedure.

Grab a tape measure or standard ruler, and measure from the outer edge of any bolt to the center of the bolt across from it. Since there are an odd number of bolts, you’ll land in the middle of two bolts after you measure straight across. Just pick one of the two closest, and measure to the center of that one.

Now that you have your diameter, all you have to do is put that together with the number bolts, and you have your bolt pattern!
