Wheel fitment
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x120 |
| Centre bore | 72.6 mm |

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 8J–9J | ET5–ET23 |
| Rear (staggered) | 9J–10J | ET9–ET25 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
