2012 Dodge Challenger bolt pattern

The 2012 Dodge Challenger bolt pattern is 5x4.53. But what does that mean?

Bolt patterns explain two things: how many bolts are on each wheel (the first number) and the diameter of the circle that these bolts form in inches (the second number).

In this case, the Dodge Challenger bolt pattern means that each wheel on the 2012 Dodge Challenger has five bolts and that these bolts form a circle that has a diameter of 4.53 inches.

There’s more information you’ll need before you can change your wheel, however. Here are other important wheel measurements that you need for your 2012 Dodge Challenger

How to measure your 2012 Dodge Challenger bolt pattern

If you ever forget your 2012 Dodge Challenger bolt pattern, or want to check the bolt pattern on another vehicle, you can learn how to measure the bolt pattern yourself. To do so, there’s only one thing you need: a measuring tape or ruler.

Finding the first number of the bolt pattern is easy: just count how many bolts are on one of your Dodge’s wheels.

For the second number, you’ll need your measuring tool. To get the diameter, pick a bolt and measure from the outer edge of the lug hole to the center of the opposite bolt. Since the Challenger has an uneven number of bolts, you’ll end up between bolts if you measure straight across. Instead, choose one of the nearest bolts and measure to its center.

Combine these two numbers to get your bolt pattern. In the case of the 2012 Dodge Challenger, it’s 5x4.53.

This app is great, but the customer service is even better! Not to mention convenient! My husband and I got the lowest rate (much lower than the rates I was finding online through my own searches), quickly, and pretty much all through text message! Thank you so much for a hassle free experience👍
