What is the bolt pattern on a Lexus NX300?
The NX300 uses a 5-lug wheel pattern on a 114.3 mm bolt circle, with a central bore around 60.1 mm. This setup is standard across NX300 variants, and it aligns with many Lexus and Toyota wheels as well as compatible aftermarket options. Lug nuts are typically M12x1.5 with a 60-degree conical seat.
Bolt pattern specifications
The key specs you need to know when selecting wheels or replacements are summarized below.
- Bolts pattern: 5 on 114.3 mm (5x114.3).
- Center bore (hub bore): 60.1 mm.
- Lug nut size: typically M12x1.5 thread.
- Lug nut seat: 60-degree conical seat (standard on most Lexus models).
- Number of lugs: 5.
These specifications determine compatibility with stock wheels and most aftermarket options, and they help determine whether a wheel needs hub-centric rings for a precise fit.
Hub bore considerations
Some aftermarket wheels may have a larger or smaller center bore. If the wheel bore does not match the 60.1 mm hub bore, hub-centric rings can be used to ensure proper alignment and reduce vibration.
Model year coverage and compatibility
The 5x114.3 bolt pattern described here applies to the Lexus NX300 and its related variants across recent model years. Always verify the exact specs for your vehicle, especially if you are shopping for aftermarket wheels or different trim levels.
To confirm wheel compatibility for your exact car, check the vehicle’s wheel specification label (often on the door jamb or owner’s manual) or consult a Lexus dealer with your VIN. This helps ensure you pick wheels that fit without issues.
How to verify on your own
Before purchasing wheels or adapters, use these quick checks to confirm fitment.
- Confirm the bolt pattern is 5x114.3 mm.
- Verify the center bore is 60.1 mm or plan for hub-centric rings if needed.
- Ensure lug nuts are M12x1.5 with a 60-degree conical seat.
- Check that the wheel offset and width won’t interfere with suspension components or fenders.
- Consider hub-centric adapters if using wheels with a different bore to avoid vibration.
Proper verification reduces the risk of clearance issues and vibration, ensuring a safe and smooth fit for NX300 wheels.
Summary
For the Lexus NX300, the standard wheel interface is a 5-lug pattern on a 114.3 mm bolt circle, with a 60.1 mm center bore and M12x1.5 lug nuts with a 60-degree conical seat. This configuration covers NX300 variants across recent years and is compatible with many OEM and aftermarket wheels, with hub-centric rings as needed for bore mismatches. Always double-check the exact specs for your vehicle using the VIN or official documentation when shopping for wheels.
