How is Lug Pattern Measured for 4 On 4 Inch Lug Bolt Pattern Wheels

Updated 04/27/2016 | Published 04/23/2016

Question:

When it says 4 on 4inch for the lug pattern are the lugs really 4inch from center to center? Mine appear to be about 3inch center to center. Thanks,

When measuring the wheel bolt pattern for 4 on 4 inch wheels, the measurement is taken on lug holes diagonally, not lug holes side by side. I recommend measuring your wheel again, center-to-center on lugs directly across from each other. The lug holes are closer than 4 inches together when measured side to side, center on center.

I've attached a photo showing this measurement on a wheel for you, as well as a help article on determining wheel bolt pattern.
