What cars do the 5x5 bolt pattern fit?

A 5x5 (or 5x127mm) bolt pattern is relatively common, but it's not a single, universally named pattern. Many different makes and models use it. To get a definitive list, you'd need to consult a wheel fitment guide or database specific to your region (as bolt patterns can vary slightly even within the same "5x5" designation due to differences in lug nut seat type).

However, some *common* vehicles that frequently use this pattern include:

* Many older American trucks and SUVs: This pattern was prevalent on vehicles from Ford, Chevrolet, Dodge, and GMC, particularly in the 1980s, 1990s, and early 2000s. Specific models would require further research.

* Some Jeep vehicles: Certain Jeep Wranglers and Cherokees have used this pattern. Again, model year is critical.

* Some Dodge/Chrysler vehicles: Certain models from these brands have employed this pattern, but this is less common than with the trucks mentioned above.

To find out if a *specific* car uses a 5x5 bolt pattern, you MUST:

1. Check the owner's manual: This is the most reliable source.

2. Look at the wheel itself: The bolt pattern is usually clearly stamped on the back of the wheel.

3. Use an online wheel fitment guide: Websites and apps exist that allow you to search by make, model, and year to find the correct bolt pattern and other wheel specifications.

Do *not* rely solely on generalized lists like this one. Using incorrect wheels is dangerous and can lead to wheel separation.
