Wheel bolt pattern and hub specifications

Tags: #wheels · #mazda-6-compat · #price

FAW Besturn X80 wheel/hub specifications: bolt pattern (PCD) 114.3mm, center bore 67.1mm, offset (ET) +45mm ¹. These match most standard lug nuts and wheel adapters ¹. 19" wheels are also usable, with 235/50 tire size, ET +40, and hub diameter 73mm — this combination requires centering rings to take up the bore difference ².

Hub retaining nut size (disputed, varies by year/restyle): front wheel hub nut size is 32mm (standard socket) on pre-restyled models. Rear hub nut size is reported inconsistently: one owner reports 34mm on a pre-restyled model, while another reports 32mm front-and-rear on a restyled model. Always verify which variant applies before ordering a tool or part — a special 34mm socket needed for some rear hubs costs roughly 400–1,100 RUB (RU market, April 2025) depending on source. Disagreement: the exact rule for which model years get which nut size was not resolved in the thread — treat as year/trim-dependent until confirmed for a specific VIN ³.

Replica wheels — Replay brand R18 experience: Replay-brand replica wheels (18", designed to match factory mounting) cost approximately 40,000 RUB (RU market, July 2025) per set, versus roughly 100,000 RUB for factory-brand alternative wheels. One owner tested a set on a different vehicle (a Honda Accord, 2021, 3 years of use) without issues, and reports the wheels appear visually well-made — thick rims, good paint finish. Weight is approximately 10.2 kg per wheel, described as normal for an 18" wheel. Caution: quality consistency across replica-wheel batches varies, so inspect paint coating and geometry carefully before installation ⁴.

Wheel-arch clips — Mazda cross-fit: the plastic clips/fasteners that secure trim on the wheel arches can be sourced from Mazda parts — a parts shop identified the correct clip as a Mazda CX-5-compatible item on sight. These are cosmetic fasteners for the wheel-arch trim area, not structural ⁵.

Wheel offset ET47 — fitment check (Feb 2026): an offset of ET47 (compared to the OEM ET+45 documented above) is reported as compatible with the X80. It sits roughly 2mm deeper than OEM wheels, but the difference is not visually apparent, and caliper clearance was confirmed adequate on the standard (non-modified) suspension ⁶⁷⁸⁹¹⁰.

Wheel lug nut thread — M12x1.5mm (not 1.25mm), corrected (March 2026): FAW X80 wheel lug nuts are M12x1.5mm — not M12x1.25mm as some internet sources claim. The restyle (2018+) is confirmed to use the 1.5mm thread pitch specification. An incorrect 1.25mm-pitch nut will not thread properly. Do not confuse this with the hub retaining/stud thread below, which is a different fastener at a different pitch ¹¹.

Front hub wheel studs — M12×1.25×45mm, and how to replace them without removing the hub (April 2026): this is a separate fastener from the wheel lug nuts above — the front hub's wheel studs (шпильки) are M12×1.25×45mm (metric thread pitch 1.25mm, length 45mm). Do not confuse with the M12×1.5 stud/nut spec used on the Mazda 6. Approximate cost: ~159 RUB per stud (RU market, 2026); available from autotc.ru and other suppliers ^{12131415161718}. Replacement procedure — no hub removal needed: to replace a front wheel stud, position it at the edge of the protective cover (защитный кожух), pull it out slightly, and it comes out and goes back in easily; the cover can be pulled back far enough to access the studs without pulling the hub, and brake calipers do not need to be removed if working carefully ^192021222324. See also the Drive2.ru front hub replacement write-up ("Замена передней ступицы (потом и кровью)") linked from the front wheel hub bearing card for the full hub-out procedure when a stud job isn't enough.

Front hub retaining nut — thread spec and part number FQGJ2133042B (2024): a separate fastener again from both the wheel lug nuts and the wheel studs above — the front hub retaining/axle nut thread is M20, 1.5mm pitch, left-hand thread (резьба левая — note the reverse-thread direction when loosening). Part number FQGJ2133042B ("Гайка передней ступицы FAW Besturn X80"), listed around 400 RUB (RU market, May 2024), is available from kitzapchasti.ru and similar retailers. (In the same conversation thread, an unrelated parts question came up about the air-filter intake resonator box — FC011319X is the main/primary article number, with 5CA21319X as an alternate reference for the same restyle-spec resonator; see stock and sourcing links at kitzap.ru, kitparts.ru, and kitzapchasti.ru — this is noted here only because it shares the same source thread, not because it's a hub/wheel part.) ^{2526272829303132333435}.

Compatible aftermarket wheel specification range — R17/7.0-7.5J/5x114.3/ ET40-45/DIA67.1: for choosing aftermarket wheels generally (not tied to one donor car), search by these X80 parameters: R17, 7.0–7.5" width, 5x114.3 bolt pattern, ET45–50, hub bore (DIA) 67.1mm. Practical advice on offset: prefer ET40–45 over ET50 — ET50 sits noticeably recessed into the fender ("утопленные"); tire width can be used to partly compensate for offset choice, but ET is the primary lever — the lower the ET number, the further the wheel sits outward ³⁶. Wheels from Mazda, Kia, or Hyundai were named as compatible donor brands meeting this spec ³⁶. One owner fitted Mazda 6 wheels but got the offset wrong and had to add spacers to compensate ³⁷. Another owner runs Mazda CX-5 wheels directly, paired with 225/60 tires, with no spacer mentioned ³⁸³⁹.

Wheel nut socket size. Victor answered that the wheel bolt/nut head is 21 mm (not 19 mm) ⁴⁰.
