Toyota Corolla Bolt Pattern, Wheel & Tire Sizes
TL;DR
Bolt pattern and centre bore differ between Corolla generations and even between markets for the same generation - always confirm against your own car before buying wheels.
Why there is no single Corolla bolt pattern
The Toyota Corolla has been built in at least two parallel bolt-pattern families depending on generation, engine, and the market it was sold in. Wheel-fitment databases (wheel-size.com) and independent bolt-pattern references (cararac.com) agree that 5x114.3 is the pattern used on most recent North American and many global Corolla sedans, while 5x100 appears on a number of lower-powered trims and on several generations sold outside North America, including earlier E170/E180-era cars in some markets. Centre bore is reported as either 60.1 mm or 54.1 mm depending on the same variables. Stud thread is consistently reported as M12 x 1.5 across the sources checked, but this should still be confirmed at the wheel shop.
What the sources actually show, by generation
The table below lists only the figures that were corroborated in at least one credible wheel-fitment source. Where sources disagreed or a market split existed, both values are shown rather than picking one arbitrarily.
| Generation / years | Bolt pattern | Centre bore | Stud thread | Stock wheel sizes | Common tire sizes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| E170 (2013-2019), incl. facelift | 5x100 (widely reported) or 5x114.3 (US-market listings on wheel-size.com) | 54.1 mm or 60.1 mm - varies by market | M12 x 1.5 | 15x6, 16x6.5, 17x7 | 195/65R15, 205/55R16, 215/45R17 |
| E180 (2012-2015, global small-sedan variant) | 5x100 (per cararac.com) | Not corroborated - check your placard | M12 x 1.5 | 15-16 inch factory rims | 185/65R15, 195/60R16 |
| E210 (2019-2024/2025) | 5x114.3 (confirmed on multiple wheel-size.com PCD listings); some non-US Corolla/Altis market builds are listed at 5x100 | 60.1 mm | M12 x 1.5 | 16x6.5, 17x7, 18x7.5 | 195/65R15, 205/55R16, 225/45R17, 225/40R18 |
Centre bore and stud thread - verify separately
Bolt pattern, centre bore, and stud thread do not always change together. A Corolla can share a 5x114.3 pattern across trims while the centre bore differs by market. Do not assume centre bore from bolt pattern alone - fitment guides list both 54.1 mm and 60.1 mm hubs across the Corolla lineup, and using the wrong hub-centric ring on aftermarket wheels can cause vibration.
Where to get the exact number for your car
- Driver door jamb placard - some regions print wheel/tire fitment here alongside tire pressure.
- Owner's manual - the wheels and tires section states the factory bolt pattern, bore, and torque spec for your exact trim.
- Markings stamped on your current wheels or tire sidewall.
- Toyota dealer parts counter, which can look up the exact configuration from your VIN.
Buying aftermarket wheels
Because the Corolla spans two bolt-pattern families depending on generation and market, always have the shop cross-reference your VIN rather than relying on the model name and year alone. If your current wheels do not match the figures above, trust your VIN lookup or physical measurement over this page.

Frequently asked questions
Does every Toyota Corolla sedan use a 5x114.3 bolt pattern?
No. Most recent North American Corolla sedans (E210, and many US-market E170 listings) use 5x114.3, but independent fitment databases list 5x100 for a number of other Corolla generations and export markets, including several E170 and E180 builds. Confirm your own pattern from the door placard, owner's manual, or a VIN lookup before ordering wheels.
Is the Corolla's centre bore 54.1 mm or 60.1 mm?
Both figures appear across the Corolla lineup depending on generation and market - 60.1 mm is commonly listed for recent E210 North American cars, while 54.1 mm appears on other generations and markets. Centre bore does not always track bolt pattern, so check it separately using your owner's manual or by measuring your factory wheel.
What lug nut/stud thread does the Corolla use?
Bolt-pattern references consistently list M12 x 1.5 stud thread across Corolla generations checked for this page, but you should still confirm at a tire shop, since thread size errors can damage the hub or studs.
Where is the most reliable place to check my exact Corolla's wheel fitment?
The driver's door jamb placard, your owner's manual's wheels and tires section, the markings on your current tires and wheels, or a Toyota parts counter VIN lookup are all more reliable than any generic online chart, because Corolla specs vary by trim, engine, and export market even within one model year.
