Kia Carnival wheel fitment — Carniva UP
Kia Carnival wheel fitment
Kia Carnival 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 Kia Carniva UP (2021–2026).
| Bolt pattern (PCD) | 5x114.3 |
| Centre bore | 67.1 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M12x1.5 (nuts) |
| Seat type | tapered |
| Factory setup | square |
| TPMS | direct |
Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 6J–8J | ET35–ET50 |
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 Kia Carnival is a minivan manufactured by Kia since 1998, marketed globally under various nameplates including the Sedona. The second generation (VQ) was introduced in December 2004 and produced until June 2012 for Europe and December 2014 for North America. It featured short and long wheelbase variants with updated equipment like Kia's Tiger Nose grille from 2010 onwards.
History & notable variants
The second generation Carnival/Sedona was introduced in 2005, offering a wider track and lighter weight compared to the first generation. In North America, it initially came only as a long-wheelbase model until short-wheelbase models were added for the 2007 model year. The Sedona received updates including new styling and improved safety features for the 2011 model year but discontinued in the US after 2012.
