How to measure your Nissan Maxima’s bolt pattern
The measurements above should be more than enough information to have your wheels swapped out, but if you’d like to double-check the bolt pattern, we have a way to calculate it for yourself.
Start by finding a measuring tape or basic ruler. Next, pick a bolt and measure from its outer edfe to the center of the lug hole opposite it.
Since there are an odd number of bolts, if you measure straight across, you will wind up in between the bolts. Simply choose the one you are between and measure to the center of that one.
Once you have your diameter measurement, just put it together with the number of bolts on the wheel and you’ve got your bolt pattern!
