How to Read Wheel Offset & Measurements
Use these two references before ordering: the left diagram shows where each spec (PCD, center bore, offset, width and diameter) is measured on the wheel; the right diagram shows how positive, zero and negative offset shift the wheel face relative to the hub centerline.
ANKUSI Engineering Expert Advice
On a performance-oriented coupe, the wheel is one of the few components where shaving weight has a compounding effect — less rotational mass means less work for the brakes, the drivetrain, and the chassis on every input. A forged wheel gets there without compromising the strength margin the factory engineered in.
The Cadillac CTS Coupe runs a 5x120 bolt pattern, 66.9mm center bore, and a 18x8.5J at ET48, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 20x9.5J ET35, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Cadillac CTS Coupe. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 20x10J ET30 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Cadillac CTS Coupe OE Wheel Specs
The 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe (Coupe) uses a 5x120 bolt pattern with a 66.9mm center bore. Factory wheels are 18x8.5J at ET48.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Keeps unsprung weight low to preserve the factory handling balance
- Matches the wider, performance-oriented tire sizing typical of this platform
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake package and suspension geometry
- Balances grip with ride comfort for daily and spirited driving
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Cadillac CTS Coupe (2011) we drill the 5x120 pattern and cut the centre bore to 66.9mm on our own CNC line, so the wheel hub-centres on the car with no spacer rings, in whatever diameter, width and offset you specify.

Real-World Fitment Notes

Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 18x8.5J ET48 → ~6.64″ backspacing
- Flush: 20x9.5J ET35 → ~6.63″ backspacing
- Max: 20x10J ET30 → ~6.68″ backspacing
A Note on Clearance
Final clearance depends on the exact tire model, suspension height, brake package, alignment and vehicle tolerances. A physical test fit is recommended before production.
Want to check a different width or offset before you order? Use our Offset & Backspacing Calculator to solve the numbers yourself, or looking for your exact Cadillac spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Cadillac CTS Coupe? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Cadillac CTS Coupe (5x120, 66.9 mm Bore)
In our database, 161 other vehicle entries from 10 makes use exactly the same 5x120 bolt pattern and 66.9 mm center bore. Factory wheels from these cars bolt on and center on the hub without rings; offset and width still have to be checked.
5x120 is used by 10.3% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (670 of 6,503); 24.2% of those also use a 66.9 mm center bore.
Hub-Centric Rings for a 66.9 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 66.9 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 67.1 mm | 67.1 → 66.9 mm |
| 70.1 mm | 70.1 → 66.9 mm |
| 70.5 mm | 70.5 → 66.9 mm |
| 71.6 mm | 71.6 → 66.9 mm |
| 73.1 mm | 73.1 → 66.9 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 66.9 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Cadillac CTS Coupe use?
The 2011 Cadillac CTS Coupe uses a 5x120 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Cadillac CTS Coupe use?
The Cadillac CTS Coupe uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x120), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Cadillac CTS Coupe?
The Cadillac CTS Coupe's center bore is 66.9mm. If an aftermarket wheel has a larger center bore than this, hub-centric rings are recommended so the wheel centers on the hub itself rather than relying on the lug bolts alone.
What size are the factory (stock) wheels on the Cadillac CTS Coupe?
Factory wheels on the Cadillac CTS Coupe are 18x8.5J at ET48.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Cadillac CTS Coupe without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 20x10J at ET30 offset. Going beyond this typically causes rubbing under compression unless you roll the fenders or add camber correction.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Cadillac CTS Coupe?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 20x9.5J at ET35 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Cadillac CTS Coupe.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Cadillac CTS Coupe?
No. ANKUSI forges each wheel to your exact target offset, including the flush or max specs above, so you get the correct fitment without stacking spacers. Spacers are typically only used to push out an existing OE-offset wheel without replacing it, which isn't necessary when you're ordering a custom-offset forged wheel.
How do I calculate wheel backspacing for my Cadillac CTS Coupe?
Backspacing (in inches) = wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance). For example, the flush spec above works out to roughly 6.63" of backspacing.
What's the difference between wheel offset and backspacing?
Offset is the distance in millimeters from the wheel's true centerline to its mounting face (positive offset pulls the wheel in, negative pushes it out). Backspacing is the distance in inches from the mounting face to the back edge of the wheel barrel. They describe the same fitment from two different reference points, which is why ANKUSI lists both above — some shops and tuning guides quote offset, others quote backspacing.
Can I run staggered wheels (different sizes front and rear) on my Cadillac CTS Coupe?
The Cadillac CTS Coupe runs the same wheel size front and rear from the factory, so staggered fitment is not required. ANKUSI can still forge a staggered set (wider rear) on request if you want a more aggressive stance.
