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 Ferrari California's chassis.

The Ferrari California runs a 5x114.3 bolt pattern, 67.1mm center bore, and a F: 19x8.0J wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is F 19x8.5J ET35 / R 19x10.5J ET45, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Ferrari California. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is F 20x9.0J ET32 / R 20x11.0J ET40 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.

Ferrari California OE Wheel Specs

The 2009 Ferrari California (Convertible) uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 67.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are F: 19x8.0J R: 19x10.0J.

Why the factory spec works for most owners:

  • Preserves the factory-tuned ride and steering feel
  • A mainstream size for this segment, keeping tire choice wide and prices reasonable
  • Leaves full clearance for the stock brakes and suspension hardware
  • Keeps handling predictable and consistent in everyday conditions

ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Ferrari California (2009) 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.

Flush Fitment

For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F 19x8.5J ET35 / R 19x10.5J ET45 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Ferrari California.

Maximum Aggressive Fitment

F 20x9.0J ET32 / R 20x11.0J ET40 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: F 19x8.0J ET44 → ~6.23″ F backspacing, R 19x10.0J ET52 → ~7.55″ R backspacing
  • Flush: F 19x8.5J ET35 → ~6.13″ F backspacing, R 19x10.5J ET45 → ~7.52″ R backspacing
  • Max: F 20x9.0J ET32 → ~6.26″ F backspacing, R 20x11.0J ET40 → ~7.57″ R 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 Ferrari spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Ferrari California? 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 Ferrari California (2009)

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 67.1mm 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.

Designs we already tool for the 5x114.3 pattern — each one is re-cut to your sizes and offsets:

Frequently Asked Questions

What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Ferrari California use?
The 2009 Ferrari California uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Ferrari California use?
The Ferrari California 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 Ferrari California?
The Ferrari California'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 Ferrari California?
Factory wheels on the Ferrari California are F: 19x8.0J R: 19x10.0J.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Ferrari California without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is F 20x9.0J ET32 / R 20x11.0J ET40. 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 Ferrari California?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend F 19x8.5J ET35 / R 19x10.5J ET45 as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Ferrari California.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Ferrari California?
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 Ferrari California?
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" backspacing up front and 7.52" in the rear.
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 Ferrari California?
Yes — the Ferrari California's factory and our recommended flush/max fitments already use staggered sizing (different width front and rear), and ANKUSI can forge matching staggered sets to your target offsets.

Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Ferrari California (5x114.3, 67.1 mm Bore)

In our database, 449 other vehicle entries from 26 makes use exactly the same 5x114.3 bolt pattern and 67.1 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 20.1% of the vehicle entries in our database (1,284 of 6,396); 35.0% of those also use a 67.1 mm center bore.

Hub-Centric Rings for a 67.1 mm Center Bore

A wheel with a center bore larger than 67.1 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:

Wheel boreRing size
70.1 mm70.1 → 67.1 mm
70.5 mm70.5 → 67.1 mm
71.6 mm71.6 → 67.1 mm
72.6 mm72.6 → 67.1 mm
73.1 mm73.1 → 67.1 mm

ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 67.1 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
