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
With less structural stiffness from the missing roof, a convertible's suspension tuning leans more heavily on unsprung mass control. Forged construction keeps wheel weight down at the same strength rating, which is one less variable working against the Bentley Azure Final Series's chassis.
The Bentley Azure Final Series runs a 5x154.94 bolt pattern, 117.6mm center bore, and a F: 18x8.0J wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 19x9.0J ET18, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Bentley Azure Final Series. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 20x9.5J ET15 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Bentley Azure Final Series OE Wheel Specs
The 2003 Bentley Azure Final Series (Luxury Convertible) uses a 5x154.94 bolt pattern with a 117.6mm center bore. Factory wheels are F: 18x8.0J R: 18x8.0J.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday fuel efficiency
- A widely used size in this segment, so tire and wheel availability stays strong
- Keeps unsprung weight low for stable, predictable handling
- Maintains clearance for the factory brake calipers and suspension components
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Bentley Azure Final Series (2003) we drill the 5x154.94 pattern and cut the centre bore to 117.6mm 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.

Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: F 18x8.0J ET20 → ~5.29″ F backspacing, R 18x8.0J ET20 → ~5.29″ R backspacing
- Flush: 19x9.0J ET18 → ~5.71″ backspacing
- Max: 20x9.5J ET15 → ~5.84″ backspacing
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 Bentley spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Bentley Azure Final Series? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Bentley Azure Final Series use?
The 2003 Bentley Azure Final Series uses a 5x154.94 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Bentley Azure Final Series use?
The Bentley Azure Final Series uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x154.94), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Bentley Azure Final Series?
The Bentley Azure Final Series's center bore is 117.6mm. 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 Bentley Azure Final Series?
Factory wheels on the Bentley Azure Final Series are F: 18x8.0J R: 18x8.0J.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Bentley Azure Final Series without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 20x9.5J at ET15 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 Bentley Azure Final Series?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 19x9.0J at ET18 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Bentley Azure Final Series.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Bentley Azure Final Series?
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 Bentley Azure Final Series?
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 5.71" 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 Bentley Azure Final Series?
The Bentley Azure Final Series 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.
