Why This Page Exists

Four studs means a hundred millimetres. That is what almost everyone believes, sellers included, and it is the single most repeated mistake in the Japanese used-wheel trade.

It is wrong often enough to be worth a page. Here is every car we have personally verified running four studs on a 114.3 mm bolt circle, read off Japanese factory data rather than inferred.

The List

Car Which grades Bore
Nissan Primera P10 and P11 All of them, 1990–2001, including the 2.0 Te-V 66 mm
Nissan Serena C23 All of them, 276 rows Not researched
Nissan Sunny B14 Upper grades only — Super Touring, diesel Super Saloon, 4WD ATTESA 66 mm
Nissan Sunny B15 All of them, including the VZ-R 66 mm
Nissan Wingroad Y11 Upper grades only — base LE Extra is 4×100 66 mm
Nissan Avenir W10 Base Avenir — the Salut badge is 5-lug Not researched
Nissan Bluebird U14 All of them, 2WD and 4WD ATTESA Not researched
Nissan Bluebird Sylphy G10 All of them — the G11 that replaced it is 4×100 66 mm
Mitsubishi Galant All ordinary grades, plus the 2.0 turbo VR-4 Not researched
Mitsubishi Mirage / Lancer Cyborg ZR and VR only — the rest is 4×100 67 mm
Mitsubishi Chariot All of them, including Resort Runner GT 67 mm
Mitsubishi RVR 14-inch grades — 15-inch grades are 5-lug 67 mm
Mitsubishi Minicab See guide See guide
Toyota TownAce / LiteAce 2WD only — 4WD is 5-lug Not researched
Nissan Prairie M11 All of them, 1988–1998, 2WD and 4WD 66 mm
Suzuki Cultus Before February 1996 — after that it is 4×100 Not researched
Every row read from Japanese factory wheel data. Bores marked “not researched” are recorded as 調査中 in the source.

What the List Tells You

It is four manufacturers, not one. Nissan uses it most, but Mitsubishi, Toyota and Suzuki all appear. This is not a quirk of one company’s parts bin.

It clusters in the 1990s. Almost everything here was built between 1990 and 2005. That is the period when Japanese makers were migrating the class between small cars and rear-drive saloons, and 4×114.3 is what they used on the way.

The bore is not constant. Nissan runs 66 mm, Mitsubishi runs 67 mm, and a great many entries have never been measured at all. So establishing the bolt circle is only half the job — a 66 mm-bored wheel does not fit a 67 mm hub, and vice versa it fits loosely.

Half of these split within the model. On the Sunny B14, Wingroad Y11, Avenir W10, Mirage, RVR, TownAce and Cultus, some grades or years are 4×114.3 and others are not. Those cases have their own page: Same Chassis Code, Two Bolt Patterns.

Why Sellers Get It Wrong

Not through dishonesty, mostly. Three reasons compound:

  1. Four studs reads as small car, and small car reads as 100 mm. It is a reasonable heuristic that happens to be wrong here.
  2. The cars are ordinary. Nobody double-checks a Bluebird. These are family saloons and estates, not the cars people research obsessively.
  3. Aggregator sites propagate one figure per model name. When a model splits by grade or by year, a single-figure listing is guaranteed to be wrong for somebody.

The Thirty-Second Check

On a four-stud hub, this is trivially easy and there is no excuse for guessing.

Measure centre-to-centre between two studs directly opposite each other. That distance is the PCD. No geometry, no calculator. 100 and 114.3 are 14 mm apart — you cannot confuse them once you have a rule on the hub.

While you are there, measure the hub register too. Our hub bore reference covers it, and on the cars above marked “not researched”, your measurement is better data than anything published.

If You Are Selling

State the PCD, the hole count and the bore for the wheels themselves, not the car they came off. If you only know the car, state the grade and build date, not just the model — because on seven of the cars above, the model name does not determine the answer.

We would rather see a slower, correct listing than a fast one that ends in a return.

Additions, August 2026

Three more Honda entries verified on cars-japan.net. All are 4 × 114.3 with no published hub bore, which is itself worth recording — 103 rows across the Ascot family and 31 across the Vigor, every one with the bore column left as a dash.

Car Chassis codes Hub bore Rows
Honda Ascot CB1, CB2, CB3, CB4, CE4 not listed 73
Honda Ascot Innova CB3, CB4, CC4, CC5 not listed 12
Honda Rafaga CE4, CE5 not listed 18
Honda Vigor CB5, CC2, CC3 not listed 31
Honda Accord Inspire CB5 not listed 12
Honda Inspire and Saber (to 1998) CC2, CC3, UA1, UA2, UA3 64 mm 25

Note the inconsistency in the last two rows against the fourth: the Inspire table publishes 64 mm for CC2 and CC3, while the Vigor table — covering those same chassis codes — leaves the bore blank. We have not carried the 64 mm figure across into the Vigor rows, because a bore is exactly the number where being nearly right is worse than admitting you do not know.

Additions, batch of August 2026

Two more four-lug 114.3 entries, both unusual:

Car Chassis code Hub bore Rows Size
Mitsubishi Colt Ralliart Version R Z27AG 67 mm 16 6.5J × 16 +43
Nissan Tiida 1.8 6MT (as recorded) JC11 66 mm 3 5.5J × 15 +40

The Colt entry is the more useful of the two and the more surprising: every other Colt, Colt Plus and naturally-aspirated Colt Ralliart row is 4 × 100 on a 56 mm bore. Only the turbocharged Version R, chassis code Z27AG, is 4 × 114.3 — and at 67 mm rather than Mitsubishi’s usual 56. We read all sixteen rows and they agree, but the bore figure is unusual enough that we would measure before buying.

The Tiida rows are included for completeness and with a warning: they contradict every other Tiida row in the database, and we could not corroborate them anywhere else. Treat them as unconfirmed.

Additions, second batch of August 2026

Car Chassis code Hub bore Rows Note
Mitsubishi Eterna E32A through E84A not listed 154 The single largest four-lug 114.3 entry we have found
Mitsubishi Legnum, ordinary grades EA1W–EA7W, EC1W–EC7W, non-VR-4 EC5W 56 mm 69 The VR-4 EC5W is five-stud at 67 mm
Mitsubishi Dion CR5W, CR6W, CR9W not listed 74 A seven-seat MPV on four studs
Honda Torneo, ordinary grades CF3, CF4, CF5, CL3 64 mm 54 The CL1 Euro R is five-stud

Two of these — the Legnum and the Torneo — are cars where the performance grade moves to five studs while the ordinary grades stay on four. That is now a recognisable pattern rather than a coincidence, and it means the chassis code matters more than the model name on both.

Additions, third batch of August 2026

Car Chassis codes Hub bore Rows
Mitsubishi Eterna E32A–E84A not listed 154
Mitsubishi Eterna Sava E32A–E39A not listed 47
Mitsubishi Emeraude E52A, E53A, E54A, E64A, E84A not listed 40
Nissan Largo W30, NW30, VW30, VNW30 not listed 168
Nissan Vanette Serena C23 series not listed 144

The two Nissans are the notable ones: full-size seven-seat MPVs on four studs. Load rating, not just bolt pattern, is the constraint when shopping for these. Note also that the Vanette Serena’s successor, the C24 Serena of 1999, is five-stud — same nameplate, different fitment.

With these five entries the four-lug 114.3 list now runs to well over a thousand database rows, spread across Honda, Mitsubishi and Nissan. It is a small market in production terms but not a small list of cars.
