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 Dodge Stratus Coupe runs a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 67.1mm center bore, and a 17x6.5J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 18x7.5J ET38, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Dodge Stratus Coupe. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 18x8.0J ET35 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Dodge Stratus Coupe OE Wheel Specs
The 2005 Dodge Stratus Coupe (Coupe) uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 67.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 17x6.5J 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 Dodge Stratus Coupe (2005) we drill the 5x114.3 pattern and cut the centre bore to 67.1mm 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.
Converting these ET figures to backspacing? Use the wheel offset and backspacing calculator.
The figures on this page are part of our open wheel fitment dataset — 10,093 vehicles, free to download, CC BY 4.0.
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 17x6.5J ET42 → ~5.4″ backspacing
- Flush: 18x7.5J ET38 → ~5.75″ backspacing
- Max: 18x8.0J ET35 → ~5.88″ 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 Dodge spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Dodge Stratus Coupe? 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 Dodge Stratus Coupe use?
The 2005 Dodge Stratus Coupe uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Dodge Stratus Coupe use?
The Dodge Stratus Coupe 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 Dodge Stratus Coupe?
The Dodge Stratus Coupe's center bore is 67.1mm. 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 Dodge Stratus Coupe?
Factory wheels on the Dodge Stratus Coupe are 17x6.5J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Dodge Stratus Coupe without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 18x8.0J at ET35 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 Dodge Stratus Coupe?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 18x7.5J at ET38 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Dodge Stratus Coupe.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Dodge Stratus 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 Dodge Stratus 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 5.75" 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 Dodge Stratus Coupe?
The Dodge Stratus 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.
