Kia Niro wheel fitment — E-Niro I DE
Kia Niro wheel fitment
Kia Niro wheel fitment for the Kia E-Niro (I) DE (2018–2022): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.
| 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 | 7J–8.5J | ET35–ET50 |
Go wider and the offset has to rise with it, about 8 to 10 ET per extra 1J, or the wheel pokes past the arch. The fit-check settles the exact offset and any spacer.
UK popularity & demand
Based on DfT VEH0124 vehicle-parc data (2025), there are approximately 133,551 Kia Niro on UK roads, placing it in the top 3% of car models by volume across our fitment database.
That makes Kia Niro wheel fitment a high-demand spec to keep in stock. It is one reason we track it here.

Overview
The Kia E-Niro is a subcompact crossover SUV manufactured by Kia since 2016. It is part of the Niro family, which includes hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery electric variants. The first generation was introduced in 2016 on the Eco-Car platform, sharing similarities with the Hyundai Ioniq but featuring a dual-clutch transmission instead of a CVT for a more engaging driving experience. It is positioned between the Kia Stonic and Sportage in size. Production started in May 2016 at Hwaseong Plant in South Korea, with European sales beginning in Q3 2016. The E-Niro received a facelift in 2019, introducing new front and rear bumpers along with updated headlights and color choices.
