What lug pattern is a 2006 Acura Rl?

The 2006 Acura RL uses a 5-lug bolt pattern on a 114.3 mm (4.5 inch) bolt circle, so you’ll need wheels that match 5x114.3 for proper fitment.


Understanding the lug pattern and its importance


When shopping for replacement wheels or upgrading, the lug pattern determines whether the wheel can be mounted on the hub. The 2006 RL’s standard pattern is shared with several other Honda/Acura models from the era, which can influence availability and pricing for OEM or aftermarket wheels.


What this means for wheel choices


Beyond the bolt circle, other factors like the center bore and lug nut size affect fitment. Always verify these specifications and consider hub-centric rings if your wheel’s center bore differs from the RL’s hub bore to avoid vibration or alignment issues.


Key compatibility notes about the RL’s lug pattern:



  • Bolt pattern: 5 bolts on a 114.3 mm circle (5x114.3).

  • Commonly shared with other Honda/Acura models of the mid-2000s, which can expand wheel options.

  • Center bore and lug nut details should be verified for each wheel to ensure proper centering and secure seating.


In practice, this means buyers should confirm the exact wheel dimensions, including center bore and lug nut specifications, before purchasing wheels—especially when buying aftermarket options.


Practical tips for owners and buyers


If you’re replacing wheels or ordering aftermarket rims, start with the 5x114.3 bolt pattern as the baseline. Check the vehicle’s VIN or consult a dealer to confirm any model-year specifics and verify compatibility with your trim (some RL variants may have slight production variances). Consider OEM wheels when possible for guaranteed fit, or work with a reputable wheel supplier who can confirm hook-up details for hub bore and lug nut sizing.


Summary


The 2006 Acura RL uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern (five lugs on a 114.3 mm circle). When replacing wheels, verify center bore and lug nut specifications in addition to the bolt pattern, and consider hub-centric rings if needed. This ensures safe mounting, proper alignment, and optimal performance.
