Every design below is forged to order, so it can be machined to the Think City's 4x98 bolt pattern and 58.1 mm center bore, with the width and offset calculated for your setup.

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

The Think City is a low-volume, early-generation electric city car with no meaningful aftermarket offset-tuning community, so we confirm only the real factory specification below rather than inventing Flush or Maximum Aggressive ranges. Forging still delivers a genuine benefit even on a small city EV: less rotational mass at the wheel means less energy spent accelerating a heavier, battery-equipped vehicle, which protects the car's already modest factory range.

The Think City runs a 4x98 bolt pattern with a 58.1mm center bore and a 14x5.0J at ET35 offset, front and rear wheel from the factory. ANKUSI forges to this confirmed OE specification, or to a custom offset once you share your target tire size and stance — rather than publishing invented aftermarket numbers for a vehicle this low-volume.

Think City OE Wheel Specs

The 2008 Think City (Electric City Car) uses a 4x98 bolt pattern with a 58.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 14x5.0J at ET35 offset, front and rear.

Why the factory spec works for most owners:

  • Matches the vehicle's intended use case and factory-engineered load capacity
  • A known, correct fitment with no clearance guesswork
  • Preserves factory suspension and brake clearance
  • Provides stable, predictable handling

ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Think City (2008) we drill the 4x98 pattern and cut the centre bore to 58.1mm 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.

Aftermarket Fitment: Confirmed on Request

We are still verifying real-world Flush and Maximum Aggressive reference fitments for this exact vehicle from owner communities, so we are not publishing offset ranges yet rather than guessing. Contact ANKUSI now with your target look and tire size and we will confirm a custom-offset forged wheel build for your Think City directly.

Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Think City (4x98, 58.1 mm Bore)

In our database, 53 other vehicle entries from 8 makes use exactly the same 4x98 bolt pattern and 58.1 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.

4x98 is used by 1.1% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (74 of 6,503); 73.0% of those also use a 58.1 mm center bore.

Hub-Centric Rings for a 58.1 mm Center Bore

A wheel with a center bore larger than 58.1 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:

Wheel boreRing size
60.1 mm60.1 → 58.1 mm
63.4 mm63.4 → 58.1 mm
64.1 mm64.1 → 58.1 mm
65.1 mm65.1 → 58.1 mm
73.1 mm73.1 → 58.1 mm

ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 58.1 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
