Ford S-Max wheel fitment — II
Ford S-Max wheel fitment
Ford S-Max wheel fitment comes down to two things: the factory hub spec, and how far the aftermarket width and offset can move from it. Both are here for the Ford S-Max (II) (2006–2023).
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x108 |
| Centre bore | 63.4 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Wheel-bolt torque | 110 Nm |
| Seat type | tapered |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | direct |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7.5J–9.5J | ET37–ET55 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8 to 10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
Overview
The Ford S-Max is a mid-size MPV produced by Ford Europe for the European market, introduced at the 2006 Geneva Motor Show alongside the new generation Ford Galaxy. It was designed to be sporty like a saloon car and spacious like an MPV, drawing inspiration from the seven-seater large MPV Galaxy and compact MPV C-Max. The S-Max received positive reviews and awards, including being voted European Car of the Year 2007. Production ended in April 2023 without a direct successor.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 64,333 Ford S-Max on UK roads, placing it in the top 5% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
A parc that size is why Ford S-Max wheel fitment is worth getting exactly right: a lot of owners are shopping for these numbers.

History & notable variants
The first generation (CD340) was produced from May 2006 to April 2014 in Belgium, 2007–2009 in China, and 2012–2014 in Russia. It featured Ford's Kinetic Design styling and came with heated windscreens, parking sensors, dual climate control, and a 'Fold Flat System' for flexible seating arrangements. The second generation (CD539) was introduced at the 2014 Paris Motor Show and went into production late 2015 in Spain. It offered updated engines and trim levels similar to those of other Ford models like Galaxy and Mondeo. In 2019, a facelifted version was revealed with diesel-only options until 2021 when it switched to a petrol hybrid system.
