Every 2017 Ford Fusion has a bolt pattern of 5x4.25 or 5 on 4.25. In other words, each of its wheels has five bolts—also called lugs—which make a circle that has a diameter of 4.25 inches.
If it’s time to get some fresh rims for your Fusion, you’ve come to the right place. To get wheels that fit, you’re going to need to understand your car’s bolt pattern—that is, the way the lugs are arranged.
Here, we’ll discuss how to read bolt patterns, what other measurements you’ll need, and even how to measure bolt patterns quickly on your own. Let’s get started.

The bolt pattern on any second-generation Ford Fusion is 5x4.25. You may also see this written as 5 on 4.25. If you haven’t come across bolt pattern expressions before, don’t worry! These expressions are actually quite simple.
Here’s how to read any car’s bolt pattern:
# of bolts x diameter of the circle they form
For example, the 2017 Ford Fusion’s 5 on 4.25 lug pattern simply means that its wheels each have five bolts, and if you imagine a perfect circle going through the center of each lug, it would be 4.25 inches in diameter. Remember, the diameter of a circle is the length of a straight line drawn from any two opposite points on the circle, passing through its center.
Now that we have the bolt pattern info for your

How to measure your Ford Fusion’s bolt pattern
Want to learn how to measure a bolt pattern on your own? The trick is the same for any wheel with an odd number of lugs (i.e., five).
Using a measuring tape or ruler, pick a bolt on one of the wheels and measure the distance from the outer edge of that bolt to the center of one of the two bolts furthest from it. You add this extra distance to account for the fact that the bolts in a five-bolt pattern don’t have another bolt that’s directly across.
If you were measuring a wheel with an even number of bolts (e.g., six), you’d measure from the center of one bolt to the center of the bolt directly across from it. Capeesh?
This distance measurement provides your second number in the bolt pattern expression, and the number of bolts (count ‘em!) is the first number. It’s that easy!
