Nissan Kicks Bolt Pattern, Wheel & Tire Sizes

Quick answer: This guide treats the Brazil/Latin-American Nissan Kicks as the primary reference. The first generation (2016-2023, platform P15) uses a 4x100mm bolt pattern, while the redesigned second generation (2024/2025-present, platform P16) switched to a 5x114.3mm bolt pattern - the two are not interchangeable.

TL;DR

First-gen Kicks (2016-2023): 4-lug 4x100mm wheels. Second-gen Kicks (2024/2025+): 5-lug 5x114.3mm wheels. Always confirm centre bore and stud thread on your own vehicle before buying wheels.

Which Kicks is this about

The Nissan Kicks sold in Brazil and across Latin America is the primary reference for this page. Nissan builds the Kicks in Resende, Brazil, and the model has gone through two distinct generations with different wheel hardware, so figures below are broken out by generation rather than given as one blanket spec.

First generation (P15, 2016-2023)

Multiple wheel-fitment databases (including wheel-size.com and wheel-sizes.com) list the first-generation Kicks with a 4x100mm, 4-lug bolt pattern across its production run. Factory tire sizes recorded for this generation range from 185/70R15 and 195/65R15 on base trims up to 205/60R16 and 205/55R17 on higher trims, depending on market and trim level.

Second generation (P16, 2024/2025-present)

Independent wheel retailers and fitment guides (go-parts.com, wheel-size.com) report that the redesigned second-generation Kicks changed to a 5x114.3mm, 5-lug bolt pattern - a significant change that makes first-generation wheels physically incompatible with the new model. Factory tire sizes reported for this generation run from 215/65R16 up to 225/45R19 depending on trim.

What we could not verify precisely

Centre bore and stud thread pitch are not consistently published across the sources checked for this page. Aftermarket fitment guides mention a centre bore near 66.1mm for the second generation, but we could not confirm this figure against a primary manufacturer source, so treat it as approximate only. Rather than guess, we recommend reading these two figures directly off your own wheel or a wheel shop's gauge.

Always verify on your own vehicle

Because trim levels, model years, and regional builds can differ even within one generation, the authoritative source for your exact car is always your own vehicle: check the driver's door placard, the markings stamped into your current wheels, your owner's manual, or ask a tire shop to measure the bolt pattern, centre bore, and stud thread directly before buying wheels.

Frequently asked questions

Can I put first-generation Kicks wheels on a second-generation Kicks?

No. Fitment databases show the first generation (2016-2023) uses a 4x100mm 4-lug pattern while the redesigned second generation (2024/2025-present) uses a 5x114.3mm 5-lug pattern. These bolt patterns are physically different, so wheels do not interchange between the two generations without an adapter, which is not recommended for a daily-driven wheel setup.

What is the centre bore of a Nissan Kicks?

We could not confirm an exact, manufacturer-sourced centre bore figure for either generation. Aftermarket fitment guides mention a figure near 66.1mm for the second generation, but treat that as approximate. The reliable way to get this number for your specific car is to measure your factory wheel or ask a wheel shop to check it with a bore gauge.

What tire sizes come stock on a Nissan Kicks in Brazil/Latin America?

Reported factory sizes for the first generation range from 185/70R15 and 195/65R15 up to 205/60R16 and 205/55R17 depending on trim. The second generation is reported with 215/65R16, 215/60R17, and 225/45R19 depending on trim. Your exact size is printed on the tire sidewall and on the driver's door placard.

Where is the most reliable place to find my exact Kicks wheel specs?

Your own vehicle is the authoritative source: check the driver's door jamb placard, the size and pattern markings on your current wheels and tires, your owner's manual, or have a tire shop measure the bolt pattern, centre bore, and stud thread directly.

Where the binding figure is on your car

The figures on this page are per-generation references compiled from manufacturer documentation and established fitment databases. Where your own vehicle disagrees with them, your vehicle is right.
