6x114.3 Bolt Pattern

6x114.3 means 6 lugs evenly spaced on a 114.3 mm circle, 6x4.5 in inches. Adjacent lugs sit 57.15 mm (2.25 in) apart center to center. It is the factory pattern on Nissan Frontier, Nissan Navara and Renault Alaskan.

PatternDifferenceVerdict
6x115 0.7 mm larger Not interchangeable

Even a 0.7 mm mismatch (5x114.3 against 5x115) puts every lug off-center in its hole, so the lug seats carry the wheel on a sliver of contact and the wheel can loosen. The only accepted workaround for a small mismatch is wobble bolts on a hub-centric wheel, and only for the specific pair of patterns the bolts are made for. Everything else is a different pattern.

How to measure 6x114.3

With 6 holes every hole has one directly opposite it. Measure center to center across the circle and that number is the pitch circle diameter: 114.3 mm for 6x114.3. As a cross-check, two adjacent holes should be 57.15 mm apart (57.15 × 2 = 114.3, rounded).

You will also see 6x114.3 written as 6x114 or 6x4.5. Put your own measurement into the bolt pattern calculator to match it to the nearest standard pattern.

Where 6x114.3 is used

6x114.3 appears on 7 vehicles from 4 makes in this list: Nissan accounts for 4, Renault for 1 and Mercedes-Benz for 1. The earliest fitment here is the Nissan Frontier from 2005, and 2 of the 7 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 6x114.3 itself, so check them per vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

What is 6x114.3 in inches?

6x114.3 is 6x4.5 in inches: 6 lugs on a 4.5 inch circle (114.3 mm divided by 25.4). It is the same pattern in different units, and 6x4.5 is how US wheel listings usually label it.

What cars have a 6x114.3 bolt pattern?

Nissan Frontier (2005+), Nissan Navara (2005+), Renault Alaskan, Mercedes-Benz X-Class (2018-2020), Nissan Xterra (2005-2015), Nissan Pathfinder (2005-2012), Suzuki Equator (2009-2012). Always confirm on your own vehicle: the pattern can change between generations, trims and markets.

Is 6x114.3 the same as 6x115?

No. 6x115 is 0.7 mm larger 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 6x114.3, or hub-centric wheels with wobble bolts made for that specific mismatch.
