The Chevrolet Camaro is an iconic American muscle car that has captivated automotive enthusiasts for decades. However, some still want more speed and performance and look for an upgrade with aftermarket wheels. In such cases, the lug pattern plays a key role. Dive into this article now to learn about the Chevrolet Camaro wheel bolt pattern before making any updates.

Chevrolet Camaro Lug Pattern
Throughout six generations, the Chevrolet Camaro hit the market with two bolt patterns: 5×120 (or 5×4.72) or 5×120.65 (or 5×4.75). The first option is the latest design on models launched in 2010 or later, starting from the 5th-generation Chevy Camaro. Meanwhile, the other appeared in the earlier models from 1967 to 2002.
We recommend following the manufacturer’s standards despite the minor difference between the two lug patterns. While there are five lug nuts on the wheel hub, the imaginary circle comes with a different diameter. Since its reintroduction in 2010, the Chevrolet Camaro has maintained the number of studs (5) but reduced the pitch circle diameter from 120.65 mm to 120 mm.

FAQs
What Car Has A 5×120 Bolt Pattern?

Can 5×120 Fit On 5×114?
Unfortunately, NO. The two designs measure different wheel hubs. If you want to swap 5×120 and 5×114, a wheel adapter will help, but it poses a safety risk.
