Hyundai Tucson Bolt Pattern, Wheel & Tire Sizes
TL;DR
The 2021-2025 Tucson uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern and a 67.1 mm centre bore (independently confirmed). Older generations are commonly cited with the same figures, but check your door placard, wheel markings, or owner's manual to be certain for your exact build.
What we could verify
Bolt pattern and hardware specs can change between vehicle generations, so each row of the table below should be treated on its own. For the current (fourth) generation Tucson, chassis code NX4 (model years 2021-2025), fitment references agree on a 5x114.3 bolt pattern (5 lug holes on a 114.3 mm / 4.5 inch circle) with a 67.1 mm centre bore. One specific reference for the 2025 model year also cites a lug nut torque of 80 ft-lbs (108 Nm) using M12 x 1.5 studs and a 17 mm socket.
Where sources agree less
Earlier Tucson generations (first-gen JM 2004-2009, second-gen LM 2010-2015, third-gen TL 2015-2020) are frequently listed by aftermarket wheel-fitment guides as sharing the same 5x114.3 / 67.1 mm combination, and this would be consistent with Hyundai's platform practice of the era. However, we were not able to independently re-confirm each of those older generations against a live source in this write-up, so treat those rows as a strong industry consensus rather than a directly verified figure, and double-check before ordering wheels for an older Tucson.
Stud thread size
We found conflicting references for stud/lug thread pitch: some listings for Hyundai group vehicles cite M12 x 1.25, while a specific 2025 Tucson torque-spec reference cites M12 x 1.5. Because this detail affects whether aftermarket lug nuts will actually thread on, do not guess - match the thread pitch stamped on your original lug nuts or studs, or ask your tire shop to check with a thread gauge before purchase.
Wheel and tire sizes
Factory wheel diameters on Tucson trims have commonly ranged from 17 to 19 inches depending on generation and trim level, with tire sizes such as 225/60R17, 225/55R19, and 245/45R19 appearing on various trims. These vary by trim and model year, so use the size printed on your tire's sidewall or your driver's door placard as the definitive answer for your specific vehicle, not a generic list.
Always confirm on your own vehicle
- Check the driver's door jamb placard for factory tire size and inflation pressure.
- Check the owner's manual for the recommended wheel and tire specification.
- Read the size molded into your tire sidewall directly.
- Have a wheel/tire shop confirm bolt pattern, centre bore, and thread pitch with a fitment gauge before buying aftermarket wheels.

Frequently asked questions
Will 5x114.3 wheels from another car fit any Hyundai Tucson?
The bolt pattern being the same is only one requirement. You also need a matching or compatible centre bore, correct offset for your fender clearance, and the right stud thread pitch for your lug nuts to seat properly. Even with a matching 5x114.3 pattern, always check centre bore and offset before buying, and have a shop test-fit before driving on new wheels.
What is the correct centre bore for a Tucson?
For the current (2021-2025, NX4) Tucson, 67.1 mm is the confirmed centre bore. If your wheels have a larger bore than the hub, use hub-centric rings to keep the wheel centered on the hub rather than resting on the lug bolts alone; this reduces vibration and uneven wear.
Where can I find the exact tire size for my specific Tucson?
The most reliable source is the placard on the driver's door jamb, which lists the factory tire size and correct inflation pressure for your exact trim and model year. You can also read the size directly off your current tire's sidewall, or check the owner's manual, rather than relying on a generic online chart.
Is the lug nut torque the same across all Tucson years?
No - torque specs and thread pitch can differ by generation and even by trim. One specific reference for the 2025 model year cites 80 ft-lbs (108 Nm) on M12 x 1.5 studs with a 17 mm socket; older generations may differ, so check your owner's manual or a torque chart specific to your model year before tightening wheels.
