What is the bolt pattern of the Lavida wheel hub?
2 Answers
The bolt pattern of the Lavida wheel hub is 5X100. Below are the measurement methods for wheel hub bolt patterns: 4-hole: Use a ruler to measure, with the center point of the wheel hub as the standard. Place the ruler on the center hole of the wheel hub, then measure the distance between two diagonal screws. Common 4-hole bolt patterns include 4X100, 4X108, 4X114.3. 5-hole: Professional measuring tools are required to measure the distance between two diagonal screws and the distance between two adjacent screws. Common 5-hole bolt patterns include 5X100, 5X108, 5X114.3, 5X112, 5X120.
Hi, that's a great question! My own Lavida is a 2019 model, and the wheel bolt pattern is 5x112, meaning it has 5 bolt holes with a center spacing of 112 millimeters. This bolt pattern is quite common in the Volkswagen family, such as the Golf and Passat. Why is this important? If the bolt pattern doesn't match, the wheel will be misaligned, causing vibrations while driving or rapid tire wear. In severe cases, it can even damage the braking system. I once changed my wheels and almost had an accident because I measured wrong—luckily, my friend, who's a mechanic, reminded me to carefully measure the original wheels. The unit for bolt pattern is millimeters, and you can use calipers or refer to the owner's manual for measurement. Most Lavida models from different years have a 5x112 pattern, but older models might be slightly different. It's best to check the original factory label to confirm—safety first! Matching the bolt pattern is a basic step when changing wheels, so don't overlook the details.
