Bolt Pattern

[NC-Expy]

Is there another bolt pattern that would work on the 97-02 models?

I hear of a lot of people talking about 5x5.5 or something, but as far as I'm concerned it's only 5x135? Or are these the same thing? Sorry not 100% educated on bolt patterns.

thats it...my rims have 2 patters...6x135 and 6x5.5...only 135mm will go on and can only imagine the same for 1st gens

5 x 135 is actually 5 x 5.3 (although I've never seen wheels this size advertised in inches)

You can get adapters as thin as 1" thick to go to just about any 5 bolt pattern. These guys have good information.

?x5.5 is also ?x139.7 chevy dodge toyota use those bolt patterns

So do Nissans and Jeeps in some years...

The problem though is the center hole issue. Jeeps, early Chevys, some Toys and Nissans use a big hole. Later Chevys, some Toys and Nissans use a smaller pattern.

So to simplify things,

the ONLY bolt pattern we can use is 5x135 UNLESS we get wheel adapters, correct?

Kind of sucks, but on the other hand I wanted to get spacers anyways so I could probably just get them for a different bolt pattern when I buy new rims.

correct 1st gens are 5x135. and i think minimum 16" rim to clear brakes. I know 2nd gens its 17" rims to clear brake calipers.

This now is kinda leaving me confused...

My '01 with a 3/01 build date has 17's... I bought it used, but the door sticker shows 265/70-17 as the stock size. Were 17's optional???

whowey is yours in eddie bauer? i believe like some other vehicles that the more "luxury" higher end options on vehicles come with a larger diameter rim.

Yes, mine is a loaded eddie bauer.
