Ford Maverick bolt pattern & lug nut torque
Lug pattern, hub bore, stud thread and torque for every Maverick generation from 2022–2026 — plus which other trucks the wheels can move to.
2022–2026 · 1st gen
5x108
also written 5x4.25"
Torque is the value commonly published for this generation, not a substitute for your owner's manual. Tighten in a star pattern with a torque wrench and re-check after 50–100 miles.
Maverick bolt pattern by year
One pattern across the whole run — but bore, thread and torque still move between generations.
| Years | Generation | Bolt pattern | Bore | Thread | Torque |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2022–2026 | 1st gen | 5x108 · 5x4.25" | 63.4 mm | M12 x 1.5 | 100 lb-ft |
| A unibody five-lug 5x108 hub shared with Ford cars and crossovers, not with any other pickup — truck wheels will not fit a Maverick. | |||||
Fitting wheels to a Maverick
The pattern is the first of four checks, and the one people stop at. Here is the rest of it, in the order that matters.
- 1
Pattern — 5x108
5 studs on a 108 mm circle, sold as 5x4.25" in inch terms. This has to match exactly. A wheel one standard size out will start on two studs and then bind, which is how studs get stretched and cross-threaded.
- 2
Hub bore — 63.4 mm
The centre hole has to clear a 63.4 mm hub. Factory wheels match it exactly and let the hub carry the load. Aftermarket wheels are usually bored larger to fit several vehicles, and then need hub-centric rings — without them the studs carry the load and you get a vibration that no amount of balancing fixes.
- 3
Offset and width
Offset decides whether the tire clears the fender liner at full steering lock and the suspension at full compression. It is the check that catches people out after the pattern matches and the wheel bolts on happily in the driveway. Work out the change before you buy, not after the tires are mounted.
- 4
Load rating
Every wheel carries a maximum load stamped on the back. On a truck that tows or hauls this is not a formality — the rating has to cover your axle weight, and a passenger-car wheel in the right pattern is still the wrong wheel.
Torquing a Maverick wheel
Target 100 lb-ft on M12 x 1.5 studs, reached in two or three passes rather than in one go — roughly half, then three quarters, then full. Order: 1, 3, 5, 2, 4 — skip one stud each time, which lands you on the classic five-point star. Use a torque wrench for the final pass; an impact gun cannot be trusted to a figure and over-torquing warps brake rotors as reliably as under-torquing loses wheels. Re-check after 50 to 100 miles — new wheels seat slightly as they bed in, and that is when a nut goes slack. Your owner's manual is the authority if it gives a different number than 100 lb-ft.
Maverick wheel fitment — frequently asked
What is the bolt pattern on a Ford Maverick?
The 2022–2026 Ford Maverick uses a 5x108 bolt pattern, also written 5x4.25", on a 63.4 mm hub bore. That pattern has been used across every generation on record, so wheels interchange throughout the model's history.
What is the lug nut torque on a Ford Maverick?
The commonly published figure for the 2022–2026 Ford Maverick is 100 lb-ft on M12 x 1.5 studs. Tighten in a star pattern in two or three stages with a torque wrench, never with an impact gun alone, and re-check after 50 to 100 miles whenever a wheel has been off. Your owner's manual is the authority if it disagrees.
What is the hub bore on a Ford Maverick?
63.4 mm. Factory wheels match that exactly and are hub-centric, meaning the hub carries the load rather than the studs. Aftermarket wheels are often bored larger to fit several vehicles — those need centring rings to run true, and a wheel bored smaller than 63.4 mm will not go on at all.
Do wheels from an older Maverick fit a newer one?
On bolt pattern alone, yes — the Ford Maverick has used the same pattern across 2022–2026. Bore, offset and brake clearance still have to work, and later generations often run bigger brakes, so test-fit before you commit to a used set.
Will any 5x108 wheel fit my Maverick?
Not automatically. The pattern only gets the wheel onto the studs. The bore has to clear the hub, the offset has to keep the tire out of the fender and the suspension, and the load rating has to cover your axle weight — which matters more on a truck that tows than on a car.
