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
Coupes and performance platforms are where rotational mass shows up fastest — in acceleration, in braking, and in how quickly the chassis changes direction. Forging lets us build to the same strength spec as the factory wheel at a meaningfully lower rotational weight, which is where the performance gain actually comes from, not just the visual one.
The Scion tC runs a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 60.1mm center bore, and a 18x7.5J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 18x8.5J ET35, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Scion tC. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 19x8.5J ET30 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Scion tC OE Wheel Specs
The 2011-2014 Scion tC (Sports Coupe) uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 60.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 18x7.5J F/R.
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 Scion tC (2011-2014) we drill the 5x114.3 pattern and cut the centre bore to 60.1mm 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.

Flush Fitment
For a flush look, F/R 18x8.5J ET35 is a commonly used starting point — clearance must be verified on a stock or mildly lowered Scion tC.
Maximum Aggressive Fitment
F/R 19x8.5J ET30 is a more aggressive reference setup. Beyond this, expect rubbing under compression without fender rolling or camber correction.

Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 18x7.5J ET39 → ~5.79″ backspacing
- Flush: 18x8.5J ET35 → ~6.13″ backspacing
- Max: 19x8.5J ET30 → ~5.93″ 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 Scion spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Scion tC? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Custom Forged Wheels for the Scion tC (2011-2014)
Everything above is reference data. If you want wheels actually built to it, that is what ANKUSI does: we are a forged wheel factory in Guangzhou, China, IATF 16949 and ISO 9001 certified, forging on our own 10,000-ton press and producing over 120,000 wheels a year. Forging blank, CNC machining, finishing, coating and inspection all happen in the same building — nothing is subcontracted and nothing is relabelled from another manufacturer.
Every set is cut to order, so the 5x114.3 pattern and the 60.1mm centre bore are machined for this car specifically rather than shimmed with adaptor rings. Diameter, width, offset, concavity, monoblock or multi-piece construction and the finish are all yours to choose — most Scion orders on this platform land somewhere between the 18x8.5J ET35 flush setup and the 19x8.5J ET30 aggressive setup referenced above.
We do not hold 5x114.3 wheels on a shelf — they are forged to order, which is why any offset, width and bore combination on this page is buildable rather than limited to a stock list.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Scion tC use?
The 2011-2014 Scion tC uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Scion tC use?
The Scion tC uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x114.3), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Scion tC?
The Scion tC's center bore is 60.1mm. 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 Scion tC?
Factory wheels on the Scion tC are 18x7.5J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Scion tC without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 19x8.5J 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 Scion tC?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 18x8.5J at ET35 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Scion tC.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Scion tC?
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 Scion tC?
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 6.13" 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 Scion tC?
The Scion tC 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.
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Scion tC (5x114.3, 60.1 mm Bore)
In our database, 217 other vehicle entries from 19 makes use exactly the same 5x114.3 bolt pattern and 60.1 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.
5x114.3 is used by 20.0% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (1,300 of 6,503); 16.8% of those also use a 60.1 mm center bore.
Offset and Backspacing: Factory Wheel vs Options
Backspacing ≈ width/2 + ET/25.4 + 0.5 in. "Inward" means closer to the suspension; "outward" means closer to the fender lip.
| Setup | Size | ET | Backspacing | Inward vs OE | Outward vs OE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Factory (OE) | 18x7.5J | ET39 | 5.79 in (147 mm) | — | — |
| Flush | 18x8.5J | ET35 | 6.13 in (156 mm) | +9 mm | +17 mm |
| Maximum | 19x8.5J | ET30 | 5.93 in (151 mm) | +4 mm | +22 mm |
Hub-Centric Rings for a 60.1 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 60.1 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 63.4 mm | 63.4 → 60.1 mm |
| 64.1 mm | 64.1 → 60.1 mm |
| 65.1 mm | 65.1 → 60.1 mm |
| 66.1 mm | 66.1 → 60.1 mm |
| 73.1 mm | 73.1 → 60.1 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 60.1 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
