How To Measure The Bolt Pattern of A 5-Lug Trailer Wheel

How to measure your bolt pattern for 5 lug Wheels.
The bolt pattern is simply diameter of the bolt circle.
Because there is an odd number of holes there are no two holes directly across from each other so measure from the center of 1 lug hole to the edge of the opposite.
The bolt pattern here is five on four and a half.

I saw exactly what he described. Centre of one to edge of the other. What he got was 5 on 4-1/2.
Small Ford and Dodge and some older Toyota. RecStuff, you just indicate what you were measuring. There are still hundreds of thousands of imperial wheels out there.

Nearly everyone uses metric for bolt patterns.


And the can of beans for the worst music in a video goes to . . . this one.

For five bolts hub : Measure center to center distance between a hole and the next near one. Now multiply that measure by ( 1.7 ) . The result is the bolt pattern you need....

Center to outer edge measurement, either my eyes are bad or the persons' who put this together are!

You forgot to say that you added 1/4 to the measure in order to get 4.5
