If you want to change wheels of your Ford Mustang, you may ask yourself: What is the Ford Mustang Bolt Pattern?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This guide shows what the bolt pattern (also called lug pattern) of a Ford Mustang is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bolt Pattern of a Ford Mustang for the model year 1994-present<\/span> is 5×114.3mm (5×4.5″). This means you have five lugs on the wheel and the distance of the opposite lugs is 114.3mm (4.5″). <\/strong>The center hub bore is 70.5mm (2.78″). The tread size of the lug nuts variates (see table below).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bolt Pattern of a Ford Mustang for the model year 1974-1993<\/span> is 4x108mm (4×4.25″). This means you have four lugs on the wheel and the distance of the opposite lugs is 108mm (4.25″). <\/strong>The center hub bore is 63.4mm (2.49″). The tread size of the lug nuts is 1\/2″-20 UNF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are all Ford Mustang bolt patterns the same?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From the model year 1994 to the present<\/span> are, all Ford Mustang bolt patterns the same.<\/strong> They have a five-lug bolt pattern of 5×114.3mm. The Ford Mustang model year 1974 to 1993<\/span> has a five-lug bolt pattern of 5x108mm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Measure a Bolt Pattern<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A bolt pattern, also known as the lug pattern, is the number of lugs and the diameter of an imaginary circle they create at the center of the wheel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

4-lug, 6-lug, and 8-lug pattern<\/strong>, you need to measure from the center of one lug to the center of the opposite lug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5-lug pattern<\/strong>, you need to measure from the center of one lug to the outer edge of one of the opposite lugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some bolt patterns are specified in millimeters, and some in inches. When you take the measurement, make sure you account for both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good to Know<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Important:<\/strong> Check the exact torque specifications in your Ford Mustang owner\u2019s manual and re-torque the lugs after 50 to 100 miles. Use always a calibrated torque wrench.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
