Vehicles With the Same Hub as the Smart fortwo (4x100, 60.1 mm Bore)
In our database, 141 other vehicle entries from 9 makes use exactly the same 4x100 bolt pattern and 60.1 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.
4x100 is used by 6.9% of the vehicle entries in our database (451 of 6,503); 33.3% of those also use a 60.1 mm center bore.
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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Factory (OE) | 15x5J | ET32 | 4.26 in (108 mm) | — | — |
| Flush | 16x6J | ET30 | 4.68 in (119 mm) | +11 mm | +15 mm |
| Maximum | 17x6.5J | ET25 | 4.73 in (120 mm) | +12 mm | +26 mm |
Hub-Centric Rings for a 60.1 mm Center Bore
A wheel with a center bore larger than 60.1 mm needs a hub-centric ring. The most common combinations:
| Wheel bore | Ring size |
|---|---|
| 63.4 mm | 63.4 → 60.1 mm |
| 64.1 mm | 64.1 → 60.1 mm |
| 65.1 mm | 65.1 → 60.1 mm |
| 66.1 mm | 66.1 → 60.1 mm |
| 73.1 mm | 73.1 → 60.1 mm |
ANKUSI forged wheels are bored to exactly 60.1 mm for this vehicle, so no ring is needed.

FAQ
What is the bolt pattern on a Smart fortwo?
The Smart fortwo uses a 4x100 bolt pattern on most variants we cover with a 60.1mm center bore. Other generations use 3x112 / 57.1mm (2006–2007). Always check the exact year and trim before ordering.
What is the Smart fortwo center bore?
The hub-centric center bore is 60.1 mm on the most common generation; see the table for variants. Aftermarket wheels should match this bore or use hub-centric rings so the hub, not the bolts, carries the load.
Do all Smart fortwo years share the same wheel fitment?
No. The bolt pattern or center bore changed between generations, so wheels are not interchangeable across all years. Use the year-by-year table on this page to pick the right specification.
Which forged wheels fit the Smart fortwo?
Any wheel drilled 4x100 with a 60.1mm hub bore in the offset range shown on the model guide. ANKUSI forges wheels to order for this exact specification, in 14–24 inch diameters, so no adapters or hub rings are needed.
