Ford Expedition Bolt Pattern

Catalog records for the Ford Expedition use two bolt patterns: 5×135 for 1999–2002 and 6×135 for 2003–2022.

Yes. Catalog records show two bolt patterns: 6×135 (2003–2022); 5×135 (1999–2002). Choose the pattern that matches the vehicle you have.

Generation, year range, and configuration can change the hub. Catalog records for the Ford Expedition list 6×135 for 2003–2022 and 5×135 for 1999–2002. Do not assume later years match earlier years.

Catalog records show 6×135 for 2003–2022 (20 years).

Catalog records show 5×135 for 1999–2002 (4 years).

Catalog records show 6 lugs on 6×135 (2003–2022); 5 lugs on 5×135 (1999–2002).

6×135 means 6 lug positions on a 135 mm pitch circle. The first number is lug count; the second is the pitch circle diameter in millimetres.

5×135 means 5 lug positions on a 135 mm pitch circle. The first number is lug count; the second is the pitch circle diameter in millimetres.

Catalog records show 86.8 mm.

Catalog records show M14 x 2.00 for the 6×135 variant and M12 x 1.75 for the 5×135 variant.

Catalog records for the Ford Expedition list lug nuts. Thread: M14 x 2.00 for the 6×135 variant and M12 x 1.75 for the 5×135 variant.

Catalog records show 204. Socket size is not inferred from thread.

Yes. 6×135 and 6×5.3 describe the same bolt circle: 6 lugs on 135 mm (5.3 in). Use either notation when comparing wheels.

Only with a bolt-on wheel adapter from the vehicle pattern (6×135 or the other recorded pattern) to the wheel pattern. Adapters are directional. Confirm thickness, center bore, thread, stud engagement, clearance, and load rating. Hub swaps and redrilling are not equivalent shortcuts.

You need a directed adapter whose source pattern is 6×135 and whose target pattern matches the wheels. 6×135 to another circle is not the same as the reverse unless the catalog lists both directions. Pick the target on this page; thickness is not chosen automatically.

Spacers must match the vehicle bolt pattern (6×135 or 5×135). Choose thickness for clearance and offset. Matching the pattern is not a claim that a given spacer fits the vehicle.

Only when the wheel center bore is larger than the vehicle hub. Catalog records show 86.8 mm. Rings fill that gap. They do not fix every vibration issue and they do not change bolt pattern.

The ring is wheel center bore (outer) to vehicle hub (inner). Enter the bore stamped on the wheel. Catalog matches are exact outer and inner millimetres, not nearby sizes.

No. A hub ring only fills a wheel bore that is larger than the hub. A smaller wheel bore cannot be opened with a ring.

Match the recorded thread. Catalog records show M14 x 2.00 for the 6×135 variant and M12 x 1.75 for the 5×135 variant. Fastener type: lug nuts. Seat style and length are not in this catalog — confirm those on the wheel before ordering.
