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 vehicle this heavy, the wheel is a structural part before it is a styling part - it carries the load, the brake heat and the cornering forces all at once. A forged wheel buys back unsprung weight without giving up the load rating an SUV actually needs, which is the one number most cast aftermarket wheels quietly fall short on.
We publish the factory specification for the Borgward BX7 below. We have not yet been able to verify aftermarket flush or maximum-aggressive offsets for this exact variant against a source we trust, so we are not listing any - an invented offset is worse than no offset when a wheel has to clear a caliper.
Borgward BX7 OE Wheel Specs
The 2016 Borgward BX7 (SUV) uses a 5x112 bolt pattern with a 57.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 17x7.5J 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 Borgward BX7 (2016) we drill the 5x112 pattern and cut the centre bore to 57.1mm 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
Published aftermarket fitment for this exact variant is still thin, so we have not committed to a flush or maximum-aggressive figure. Our engineering team is still collecting verified data for this variant. In the meantime the factory specification above is accurate and is the safe reference point for ordering.
What we do know: Generation 2016 .. 2021, model years 2016-2021. Verified against two independent fitment references.

Borgward BX7: Specs by Model Year
| Year | Bolt pattern | Center bore | Factory wheel |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2016 | 5x112 | 57.1 mm | 17x7.5J |
| 2021 | 5x112 | 57.1 mm | 17x7.5J |
Bolt pattern and center bore stay the same across all 2 model years in our database (2016–2021).
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Borgward BX7 (5x112, 57.1 mm Bore)
In our database, 407 other vehicle entries from 18 makes use exactly the same 5x112 bolt pattern and 57.1 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.
5x112 is used by 21.6% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (1,407 of 6,503); 29.0% of those also use a 57.1 mm center bore.
Hub-Centric Rings for a 57.1 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 57.1 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 60.1 mm | 60.1 → 57.1 mm |
| 63.4 mm | 63.4 → 57.1 mm |
| 64.1 mm | 64.1 → 57.1 mm |
| 65.1 mm | 65.1 → 57.1 mm |
| 73.1 mm | 73.1 → 57.1 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 57.1 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Borgward BX7 use?
The 2016 Borgward BX7 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Borgward BX7 use?
The Borgward BX7 uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x112), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Borgward BX7?
The Borgward BX7's center bore is 57.1mm. 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 Borgward BX7?
Factory wheels on the Borgward BX7 are 17x7.5J F/R.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Borgward BX7?
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.
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 Borgward BX7?
The Borgward BX7 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.
