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
A wagon carries wagon-specific weight distribution — more mass over the rear axle when loaded — so wheel strength at the rear corners matters as much as the front. Forging lets us match the factory's strength target on both ends while keeping rotational mass down, which keeps the ride composed whether the cargo area is empty or full.
The Fiat Tipo Station Wagon runs a 5x98 bolt pattern, 58.1mm center bore, and a 17x7.0J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 18x8.0J ET35, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Fiat Tipo Station Wagon. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 19x8.5J ET30 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Fiat Tipo Station Wagon OE Wheel Specs
The 2021 Fiat Tipo Station Wagon (Wagon) uses a 5x98 bolt pattern with a 58.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 17x7.0J F/R.
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
Flush Fitment
For a flush look with minimal rubbing, F/R 18x8.0J ET35 is the recommended starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Fiat Tipo Station Wagon.
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.

Decision Guide
Offset & Backspacing Reference
Backspacing is calculated as wheel width (in) ÷ 2 + offset (mm) ÷ 25.4 + 0.5 (flange allowance):
- OE: 17x7.0J ET35 → ~5.38″ backspacing
- Flush: 18x8.0J ET35 → ~5.88″ backspacing
- Max: 19x8.5J ET30 → ~5.93″ 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 Fiat spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Fiat Tipo Station Wagon? Contact ANKUSI with your bolt pattern and offset target and we will confirm the correct forged wheel spec for your build.
