What lug pattern is a Chevy Colorado?
The Chevy Colorado uses a 6-lug bolt pattern: 6x139.7 mm (6 on 5.5 inches).
Across its two main generations, this pattern has remained the standard for wheel mounting. If you’re shopping for wheels, switching tires, or mounting aftermarket rims, this consistency helps, though you should still verify center bore and offset for your exact build.
Overview of the Colorado’s lug pattern
Understanding lug patterns means knowing how many bolts the wheel uses and the diameter on which they are arranged. For the Colorado, the important detail is that there are six lug holes evenly spaced around a circle with a diameter of 139.7 millimeters, commonly described as 6x139.7 mm or 6x5.5 inches.
Generations and bolt pattern consistency
Here is a quick reference to the two main production periods of the Colorado and their lug pattern.
- 2004–2012 Chevrolet Colorado: Bolt pattern 6x139.7 mm (six lugs on a 139.7 mm circle).
- 2015–present Chevrolet Colorado: Bolt pattern 6x139.7 mm (six lugs on a 139.7 mm circle).
In short, both generations use the same 6x139.7 mm bolt pattern, which simplifies wheel compatibility across model years. However, always confirm the exact spec for your individual vehicle, especially if you’re considering aftermarket wheels.
How to verify the lug pattern for your Colorado
If you need to double-check for a specific vehicle or aftermarket wheel purchase, follow these steps to confirm the lug pattern goes beyond the basic specification.
- Check the vehicle’s door placard or owner's manual for the official bolt pattern specification.
- Count the number of lug holes on the wheel hub—the Colorado uses six.
- Measure the pitch circle diameter (PCD) by comparing the distance between adjacent lug holes; for the Colorado, this should be 139.7 mm (5.5 inches).
- Verify center bore size and wheel offset, since these affect fitment even when the lug pattern matches.
With these checks, you can confidently determine wheel compatibility or identify the need for adapters or different wheel options if necessary.
Summary
The Chevy Colorado uses a 6x139.7 mm (6 on 5.5 inches) lug pattern across its main generations. This consistency makes wheel replacement and upgrades straightforward, but you should still verify center bore and offset for your specific vehicle and any aftermarket options. When in doubt, consult the owner’s manual, a dealer, or a trusted tire/wheel shop to confirm exact specifications before purchasing wheels.
