GarageCalc Where 5x130 is used
5x130 appears on 10 vehicles from 4 makes in this list: Porsche accounts for 7, Audi for 1 and Volkswagen for 1. The earliest fitment here is the Porsche 928 from 1978, and 5 of the 10 are still built with this pattern today.
What else has to match
A matching bolt pattern is the first of four checks, not the last. The wheel's center bore has to match the hub, or be bridged with a hub-centric ring, so the hub carries the wheel instead of the studs. The offset decides whether the tire clears the suspension and stays inside the fender; run the numbers in the wheel offset calculator before buying. And the lug seats must match the wheel: conical, ball or flat seats are not interchangeable even when the thread is. None of those values are fixed by 5x130 itself, so check them per vehicle.
Frequently asked questions
What is 5x130 in inches?
5x130 is 5x5.12 in inches: 5 lugs on a 5.12 inch circle (130 mm divided by 25.4). It is the same pattern in different units, but this one is almost always written in millimeters; the inch figure only shows up in conversion charts.
What cars have a 5x130 bolt pattern?
Porsche 911, Porsche Cayenne (2003+), Audi Q7 (2006-2015), Volkswagen Touareg (2003-2018), Porsche Boxster / Cayman (1997+), Porsche Panamera (2010+), Porsche Taycan (2020+), Porsche 944 / 968 (1982-1995), Porsche 928 (1978-1995), Mercedes-Benz G-Class (1979+). Always confirm on your own vehicle: the pattern can change between generations, trims and markets.
Is 5x130 the same as 5x127?
No. 5x127 is 3 mm smaller in diameter. That is enough to seat every lug off-center, so the wheel is held by the lug hardware rather than by matching geometry and can work loose. Fit only wheels that are exactly 5x130, or hub-centric wheels with wobble bolts made for that specific mismatch.
