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
Minivans carry passengers and cargo across a wide range of loaded conditions, so the factory wheel spec is built around a conservative load margin. Forging lets us hold that same margin while trimming rotational mass, which shows up as smoother ride quality whether the vehicle is empty or fully loaded.
The Nissan Note runs a 4x100 bolt pattern, 60.1mm center bore, and a 15x5.5J, front and rear, wheel from the factory. Our Flush Fitment reference is 16x7.0J ET35, which tucks the tire under the fender lip on a stock-height Nissan Note. Our Maximum Aggressive reference is 17x7.0J ET32 — beyond that offset, expect rubbing against the inner fender liner under compression without further trimming.
Nissan Note OE Wheel Specs
The 2006 Nissan Note (Compact MPV) uses a 4x100 bolt pattern with a 60.1mm center bore. Factory wheels are 15x5.5J F/R.
Why the factory spec works for most owners:
- Balances ride comfort with everyday drivability
- A commonly used size for this vehicle class, supporting parts and tire availability
- Maintains clearance for the factory suspension and brake components
- Provides stable, predictable handling across normal driving conditions
ANKUSI builds these wheels — we are the forging factory, not a reseller. For the Nissan Note (2006) we drill the 4x100 pattern and cut the centre bore to 60.1mm 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: 15x5.5J ET45 → ~5.02″ backspacing
- Flush: 16x7.0J ET35 → ~5.38″ backspacing
- Max: 17x7.0J ET32 → ~5.26″ 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 Nissan spec, or want a wheel built to a custom offset for your Nissan Note? 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 Nissan Note use?
The 2006 Nissan Note uses a 4x100 bolt pattern.
How many lug bolts does the Nissan Note use?
The Nissan Note uses a 4-lug bolt pattern (4x100), so you need a 4-lug forged wheel to bolt straight on.
What is the center bore size on the Nissan Note?
The Nissan Note's center bore is 60.1mm. 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 Nissan Note?
Factory wheels on the Nissan Note are 15x5.5J F/R.
What is the biggest wheel size I can fit on my Nissan Note without rubbing?
The most aggressive fitment we recommend without fender work is 17x7.0J at ET32 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 Nissan Note?
For a flush look with minimal to no rubbing, we recommend 16x7.0J at ET35 offset as a starting point on a stock or mildly lowered Nissan Note.
Do I need wheel spacers for my Nissan Note?
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 Nissan Note?
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 5.38" 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 Nissan Note?
The Nissan Note 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.
Wheel Installation Reference: Torque, Thread & TPMS
Thread & Fastener: M12x1.25, conical-seat lug nut.
Factory Torque Spec: 103-122 Nm (76-90 ft-lb). Range covers most Nissan passenger cars and crossovers on M12x1.25 studs.
TPMS: Vehicles built before the 2008 model year were not federally required to carry factory TPMS in the US, though many manufacturers adopted it earlier; verify whether your specific build has TPMS before ordering sensor-compatible wheels.
Tire Pressure: Always set tire pressure to the value on your vehicle's tire placard (driver's doorjamb or glovebox), not the max PSI printed on the tire sidewall — this is trim- and tire-size-specific and stays the same reference point when you switch to a different wheel and tire combination.
Reference data compiled from published OEM service specifications and cross-checked against independent repair sources; always confirm against your owner's manual or door-jamb placard before installation.
