Bolt Pattern?
 
I looked through the manual and I couldn't find the bolt pattern for the FEHL.

Is it 5 X 114.3?

That's what some wheel sites have given me but would like to know for sure. Thanks

Yes - 5X114.3 or 4 1/2".

Some sites call it 114.

Used on many Ford cars and light trucks for years.

I use either www.rimhelp.com or www.wheelhelp.com to research bolt patterns they seem to have all the newer vehicles. I hope these sites help :shade:

Thanks mothership. That's exactly what I wanted to know. The Lexus wheels (19x8) from my Rav4 will fit on my FEH. FWIW, the diameter of the tires is exactly the same as the oem tires. The only problem is they aren't low rolling resistance tires.

I'll post some pics when I get them swapped out. Trouble is we've had some snow already and these puppies aren't much good in snow.

Ah, do report what the drop in mpg is. I have swapped the wheels and tires on my HCHII and Prius and there was at least a 5 mpg drop. I am sure it is going to great though. Please post pics when you get a chance.

Wery nice, the 19s are going to look really nice on your FEHL.

I hope so. I loved those wheels.

Nope, hubs are a different diameter from the Ford (larger center), so will sell them.
