The 2017 Honda Civic bolt pattern is 5x4.5”, or 5x114.3 mm, for most trims. This means that each of your Civic’s wheels contains five bolts that create a circle with a 4.5-inch diameter.
Thanks to a gutsy turbocharged engine, three sport-tuned trims for the hatchback, and a performance-focused sedan, you can find thrill in any form in the 2017 Honda Civic. But if you want to amp up the excitement even more with bigger, faster, and grippier wheels, you’ll need to know the right bolt pattern and wheel specs to properly swap your Civic’s rims.
Here’s everything you’ll need to know to equip your 2017 Civic with new wheels.
2017 Honda Civic bolt pattern
The 2017 Honda Civic bolt pattern is 5x4.5 (inches), or 5x114.3 (mm), for all trims except the Type R
, which has a bolt pattern of 5x120. If you’re not sure what these numbers mean, you can decode your Honda bolt (aka lug) pattern
as such: # of bolts x diameter of the circle they create
With this in mind, your Civic’s 5x4.5 bolt pattern means that each wheel has five bolts, which form a circle with a 4.5-inch diameter (or five bolts with a 120-mm diameter in the Type R). To successfully equip your Civic with some snazzier wheels, though, you’re going to need a little more information than its bolt pattern.
Your Civic’s stud size, wheel offset, center bore, and torque tightening measurements are also important to know:
Factory wheel size: 16” to 20”
Stud size: M12 x 1.5 mm (12 mm stud thread with 1.5 mm of thread spacing), M14 x 1.5 mm for Type R
Wheel tightening torque: 108 Nm
How to measure your Honda Civic’s bolt pattern
Now that you know the specs of your Civic’s rims, you’re all set to change them out. If you wanted to double-check the bolt pattern, though, you can actually do so yourself—just grab a ruler or measuring tape!
Since there are an uneven number of bolts on the 2017 Civic’s wheels, measuring straight across the diameter will land you between bolts. Therefore, you’re going to want to measure from the center of any lug to the outer edge of either near-opposite lug hole—this is your diameter.
Put that together with the number of bolts, and you’ve officially measured your own bolt pattern!
