The Short Version
- 4×100 on every March generation the Japanese tables cover — K10, K11, K12 and K13. There is no changeover.
- Hub bore is confirmed at 60 mm on the K12 and K13. On the K10 and K11 the database leaves the field blank, so we are not printing a figure.
- Factory wheels are small. The K10 ran 12×4J +45 on 145SR12. The K11 stepped to 13×5J +45.
- Offset is +45 almost everywhere, right through to the K13, with the Nismo S at +46.
Four Generations, One Bolt Pattern
This is a rare case where the answer is genuinely simple. We checked the K10, K11, K12 and K13 in the Japanese factory database and every grade returned 4×100, four holes. The March never changed its bolt pattern.
That is worth stating plainly because the March is nearly forty years old as a nameplate and buyers reasonably assume something must have moved in that time. It did not. A 4×100 wheel that clears the brakes will bolt to any of them.
What did move is the size. The original K10 came on 12-inch wheels — 12×4J at +45 on a 145SR12 tyre, which is smaller than most modern spare wheels. The K11 moved to 13×5J +45, the K12 to 14×5J +45, and the K13 to 14×5.5J +45 with the Nismo S taking 16×7J +46. Same pattern throughout.
Factory Specification
| Generation | Chassis | Period | Wheel | Tyre | Bolt pattern | Bore |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| K10 | E-K10 | data 1989.01–1992.01 (model run from 1982) | 12×4J +45 | 145SR12 | 4×100 | not published |
| K11 | E-K11 | data from 1993.11 (model run 1992–2002) | 13×5J +45 | — | 4×100 | not published |
| K12 | AK12 / BNK12 / YK12 | 2002.03–2010.07 | 14×5J +45 | — | 4×100 | 60 |
| K13 | K13 / NK13 | 2010.07–2022 | 14×5.5J +45, Nismo S 16×7J +46 | — | 4×100 | 60 |
The Bore Question
The database confirms 60 mm for the K12 and the K13, including on the Nismo S. For the K10 and K11 the hub bore field is empty on every grade we checked.
We are not going to carry the 60 mm figure backwards. It may well be the same — Nissan had little reason to change it — but “probably the same” is how people end up with a wheel centred on its lug nuts. If you have a K10 or K11, measure the machined register on the hub and tell us the number, or send us your chassis code and we will check it against a physical wheel before you buy.
For the K12 and K13, budget for 60 mm hub-centric rings. Aftermarket 4×100 wheels are almost always bored larger, because that pattern is shared with a lot of vehicles that have bigger hubs.
Super Turbo, March R and the Hot Grades
The March has a genuinely exotic corner: the supercharged-and-turbocharged Super Turbo (EK10GFR), and the K11-era competition grades. We went looking for whether these carry a different factory fitment and found no separate specification — every K10 and K11 grade in the database comes back 4×100.
What we could not do is isolate a dedicated Super Turbo row confirming its exact factory rim width and offset, so if you are restoring one to original specification, treat the general K10 figures above as the family answer rather than as that car’s confirmed spec. If you have the factory catalogue for it, we would like to see it.
Micra Buyers
The March was sold across the UK, Europe and Australia as the Micra, and it sold in enormous numbers. That makes the used-wheel pool for 4×100 in small sizes very large in those markets.
We have not verified from a European source whether UK-market Micras carry the identical fitment to JDM Marches, so we are flagging that rather than assuming it. The platform is the same car, which makes it very likely, but “very likely” is not what we publish as fact. Measure, or ask.
Importing
The K10 and K11 are comfortably past the US 25-year mark in full. The K12 launched in March 2002, so the earliest cars become eligible in March 2027 — not yet, as of now — and the rest follow month by month. The K13 is a 2035-and-later proposition.
The car most people actually want is the Super Turbo, and that one is eligible.
What We Could Not Verify
- Hub bore for the K10 and K11. Blank on every grade in the source.
- A dedicated factory wheel and offset row for the March Super Turbo (EK10GFR) or the K11 competition grades.
- Whether UK and European Micras share the JDM fitment. Not checked against a European source.
- K10 data before January 1989, which precedes the database’s earliest record for the model.
