Then measure the gap between the bolt centers (or from one&#8217;s center to another&#8217;s furthest edge) using a ruler or a measuring tape. Put an &#8220;x&#8221; between the two numbers to manifest the final result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 1. Count the number of wheel bolts<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To determine whether the Dodge Charger has 5 or 4 lugs (there are no other options), simply count how many studs\/bolts are currently binding the wheels to their hubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 2. Calculate the bolt pattern diameter.<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.corwheels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-lug-measurement.jpg\" alt=\"5 lug measurement\" class=\"wp-image-2327\" width=\"273\" height=\"430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.corwheels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-lug-measurement.jpg 423w, https:\/\/www.corwheels.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/5-lug-measurement-191x300.jpg 191w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 273px) 100vw, 273px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Measure the gap between the bolts&#8217; centers to confirm the circle&#8217;s diameter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>For four-lug wheels: choose two opposite bolts (lying across from each other) and measure the gap between their two centers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For five-lug wheels: pick two adjacent holes and measure the gap between the first bolt&#8217;s center to the furthest edge of the second one.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Step 3. Conclude the pattern<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With both the lug counts and the circle diameter at hand, you can find out the car&#8217;s wheel pattern now: put an x between them to yield the final number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some simple examples:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>5 x 115 mm<\/strong>: 5 lug bolts and 115 mm of circle diameter<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>4 x 100<\/strong>: 4 lugs and 100 mm circle diameter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"is-dodge-charger-bolt-pattern-the-same-as-other-dodge-patterns\"><strong>Is Dodge Charger Bolt Pattern The Same As Other Dodge Patterns?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all. While several Dodge lines do share the same patterns as the Charger (Dodge Caravan, for instance, with its <strong>5 x 114.4 pattern<\/strong>), others are entirely different. Some models even have 6-lug designs instead of 5-lug.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some of the common examples are as follows (along with other specs for your reference):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Model<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Year<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Pattern (inches)<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Pattern (mm)<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Center Bore<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Durango<\/td><td>1999 &#8211; 2003<\/td><td>6 x 4.5&#8243;<\/td><td>6 x 114.3 mm<\/td><td>71.5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Durango<\/td><td>2004 &#8211;&nbsp; 2009<\/td><td>5 x 5.5&#8243;<\/td><td>5 x 139.7 mm<\/td><td>77.8<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Durango<\/td><td>2010 &#8211; 2022<\/td><td>5 x 5&#8243;<\/td><td>5 x 127 mm<\/td><td>71.6<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Challenger<\/td><td>2008 &#8211; 2020<\/td><td>5 x 4.52&#8243;<\/td><td>5 x 115 mm<\/td><td>71.5<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Challenger<\/td><td>2021 &#8211; 2022<\/td><td>5 x 4.52&#8243;<\/td><td>5 x 115 mm<\/td><td>71.6<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Journey<\/td><td>2009 &#8211; 2019<\/td><td>5 x 5&#8243;<\/td><td>5 x 127 mm<\/td><td>71.6<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dodge Caravan<\/td><td>1999 &#8211; 2007<\/td><td>5 x 4.5&#8243;<\/td><td>5 x 114.3 mm<\/td><td>71.5<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"can-i-change-my-dodge-chargers-4-lug-to-5-lug-pattern\"><strong>Can I Change My Dodge Charger&#8217;s 4-Lug to 5-Lug Pattern?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes. In fact, since many drivers have upgrade demands for their 4-lug wheel hubs, wheel adapters to change 4-lug to 5-lug are actually very common on the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, since a lack of expertise or adapter quality might ruin the car&#8217;s wheel assembly, you should only entrust your hands to qualified technicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conclusion\"><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Except for the brief 1982-1985 period (where all car models had 4-lug designs), the bolt pattern on Dodge Charger has always been consistently 5-lug.
