2014 Mustang GT bolt pattern

Ford’s lug pattern

is standardized for the Mustang GTs manufactured in 1994 or after. The bolt pattern for the Mustang GT, including a 2014 Mustang GT, is 5x4.6.

Here’s a quick explanation of how to read bolt patterns. The first number is the number of bolt holes. The second number is the diameter of the circle formed by the bolt holes.

# of bolts x diameter of the circle they form

In your GT, the 5x4.6 specification means that you have five bolt holes and the circle diameter is 4.6 inches.

But wait! You also need to know a few more data points before you can switch out your wheels. You need to know your Mustang’s stud size, wheel offset, center bore measurement and torque specifications.

Here are the full measurements:

Factory wheel size: 19”

Stud size: M12 x 1.75 (12 mm thread and 1.75 mm pitch)

Offset: 28 to 53 mm

Center bore: 70.5 mm

Wheel tightening torque: 135.582 Nm

How to measure your Ford Mustang GT’s bolt pattern

You can use the measurements above to buy new wheels for your Mustang. But if you’d like to learn how to measure it yourself, it’s easy! To confirm the bolt pattern for your 2014 Mustang GT, you will need a measuring tape or a ruler.

Start by counting the number of bolts. You should find five bolts in your wheel.

Now, you can use your measuring implement to measure the imaginary circle formed by the bolt holes. Because your wheel has an odd number of holes, you can’t measure straight across. Instead, pick a bolt and measure from the outer edge of the lug hole to the center of the opposite bolt. Pick either of the nearest bolts across the circle.

You’ve got your measurement now! It should be 5x4.6. With this bolt pattern, you can confidently purchase replacement wheels for your Mustang GT.

app is the quickest way to find a cheap policy.

Go from 0 to 60 in 45 seconds with Jerry… or rather, save more than $800 a year just by switching to a cheaper policy. Make sure to shop around if you modify your Mustang with new wheels, as this could affect your coverage or monthly premium.

Have fun swapping out your rims and swapping your coverage at the same time.
