More About the F-150 Bolt Pattern
Like the bolt pattern on any vehicle, the Ford F-150 bolt pattern is the diameter of an imaginary circle formed by the centers of the wheel lugs or bolt holes surrounding the hub core. There are adapters available at most auto parts and tire shops in the Decatur area that you can purchase to change the F-150 lug pattern. At the Sam Leman Ford Parts Center, we carry everything you need if you are looking to swap out your F-150 wheels.
F-150 Bolt Pattern Torque Specifications
When performing an F-150 tire rotation, or any time you are replacing the wheel, it’s crucial to check your owner’s manual for the torque specifications. Ensuring that you have applied the proper amount of torque is crucial, as vibrations caused by Champaign drives can loosen the lug nuts if they are not secured correctly. In addition, whenever you install new wheels, you should re-torque the lugs after 50 to 100 miles.
