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 sedan's wheel spec is a balance point the factory tuned between ride comfort, steering feel, and everyday durability. Forging lets us hold that same structural margin while cutting rotational mass, which is where most of the real-world benefit — quicker steering response, marginally better ride — actually comes from.
The Holden Volt ships from the factory on a 5x115 bolt pattern with a 70.3mm center bore and a 17x7J ET41 wheel. Our flush reference for the Holden Volt is 17x7.5J ET35.; our maximum aggressive reference is 18x8J ET32. — beyond that, expect clearance issues against the fender liner without further modification.
Holden Volt OE Wheel Specs
The Holden Volt ships from the factory on 5x115 bolt pattern wheels with a 70.3mm center bore. The stock wheel size is 17x7J ET41, offering a balanced ride that suits most owners without any rubbing or clearance concerns.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with steering response and highway efficiency.
- Wide tire and wheel availability at the factory diameter keeps replacement costs low.
- Lower unsprung weight than larger aftermarket wheels helps ride quality and acceleration.
- Guaranteed clearance against brake calipers and suspension components.
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Holden Volt (2011) we drill the 5x115 pattern and cut the centre bore to 70.3mm 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 and Backspacing: Factory Wheel vs Options
Backspacing ≈ width/2 + ET/25.4 + 0.5 in. "Inward" means closer to the suspension; "outward" means closer to the fender lip.
| Setup | Size | ET | Backspacing | Inward vs OE | Outward vs OE |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Factory (OE) | 17x7J | ET41 | 5.61 in (143 mm) | — | — |
| Flush | 17x7.5J | ET35 | 5.63 in (143 mm) | 0 mm | +12 mm |
| Maximum | 18x8J | ET32 | 5.76 in (146 mm) | +4 mm | +22 mm |
Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Holden Volt (5x115, 70.3 mm Bore)
In our database, 135 other vehicle entries from 9 makes use exactly the same 5x115 bolt pattern and 70.3 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.
5x115 is used by 3.2% of the vehicle pages in our English fitment guide (209 of 6,503); 65.1% of those also use a 70.3 mm center bore.
Hub-Centric Rings for a 70.3 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 70.3 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 70.5 mm | 70.5 → 70.3 mm |
| 71.6 mm | 71.6 → 70.3 mm |
| 72.6 mm | 72.6 → 70.3 mm |
| 73.1 mm | 73.1 → 70.3 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 70.3 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.
Frequently Asked Questions
What bolt pattern (PCD) does the Holden Volt use?
The 2011 Holden Volt uses a 5x115 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Holden Volt use?
The Holden Volt uses a 5-lug bolt pattern (5x115), so you need a 5-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Holden Volt?
The Holden Volt's center bore is 70.3mm. 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 Holden Volt?
Factory wheels on the Holden Volt are 17x7J ET41.
What does a flush wheel fitment look like on the Holden Volt?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 17x7.5J at ET35 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Holden Volt.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Holden Volt?
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 Holden Volt?
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 5.63" 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 Holden Volt?
The Holden Volt 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.
