Chevrolet Tracker Bolt Pattern, Wheel & Tire Sizes
TL;DR
Bolt pattern changed between generations of the Brazilian-market Tracker: 5x105 on the 2013-present cars, but 5x139.7 on the original 1999-2012 Suzuki-based Tracker. Do not assume one figure across the whole model history.
Chevrolet Tracker wheel and tire specifications (Brazil / Latin America)
The name (Tracker) has been used in Brazil for three quite different vehicles over the years, and the wheel bolt pattern is not the same across all of them. This page treats the Brazilian/Latin-American Tracker as the primary subject, since that is the market where this nameplate has stayed continuously in production.
Why the generation matters
The first Brazilian Tracker (1999-2012) was based on the Suzuki Vitara/Grand Vitara platform and used a larger, truck-style bolt pattern. The second generation (2013-2019) was a rebadged Chevrolet Trax and switched to a smaller passenger-car pattern shared with other GM Gamma-platform models. The current, third generation (2020-present, built in Brazil on the GEM platform) kept that same smaller pattern. Because of this history, never assume a single bolt pattern applies to every Tracker - confirm the generation first.

Where to get the exact figures for your car
Bolt pattern, centre bore and recommended tire size can vary by trim, market and model year even within one generation. The figures above are a solid starting point, but the only fully reliable source for your specific vehicle is:
- The tire and loading placard on the driver's door jamb
- The vehicle owner's manual
- The markings stamped on your current wheels and tire sidewalls
- Your Chevrolet dealer's parts department, using your VIN
Lug torque note
We did not find a manufacturer-published wheel lug torque figure we could verify for this model, so no number is stated here. Use the torque printed in your owner's manual, or have a shop torque the wheels to the factory specification for your exact trim.

What bolt pattern does the current Chevrolet Tracker use?
The Tracker built in Brazil since 2020 uses a 5x105 bolt pattern with M12 x 1.5 stud threads, the same pattern used by the previous Trax-based Tracker (2013-2019). This is shared with a number of other Chevrolet, Opel/Vauxhall and Buick models.
What tire sizes come on the current Tracker?
Factory tire sizes on the 2020-present Tracker range from 205/60R16 on base trims up to 215/50R18 on higher trims, with 215/60R16 and 215/55R17 as intermediate options depending on the specific trim and wheel size fitted.
Where can I confirm the exact specs for my own Tracker?
Check the tire and loading information placard on the driver's door jamb, your owner's manual, or the size markings stamped on your current wheels and tires. These are the only sources that reflect your specific trim and model year exactly.
