5x106 Bolt Pattern
A bolt pattern, or lug pattern, is a parameter that defines the number of lug holes in the wheel and the diameter of the circle (PCD, Pitch Circle Diameter) that the lug holes form. 5x106 bolt pattern, or 5x4.17 when converted to inches, indicates the wheel has 5 lug holes spaced evenly on a circle with a diameter of 106 millimeters or 4.17 inches. The 5x106 bolt pattern is common to Maserati models.
The 5x106 bolt pattern, also known as a wheel bolt pattern, indicates the specific arrangement used to secure a wheel to a vehicle's hub. This pattern consists of five evenly spaced holes in a circle with a diameter of 106 millimeters (mm) where the center of each hole would be if a circle were drawn through these points. It's crucial to match the bolt pattern of the wheel with that of the vehicle for a proper fit. This bolt pattern is somewhat unusual and less commonly encountered in the mainstream automotive market, compared to more prevalent patterns like 5x114.3 or 5x112. Vehicles with a 5x106 bolt pattern require wheels that match this specification exactly to ensure the wheel can be securely mounted and to maintain proper alignment, balance, and handling. It's important for vehicle owners to be aware of their bolt pattern when shopping for aftermarket wheels, as using wheels with an incorrect bolt pattern can lead to unsafe driving conditions and potentially damage the vehicle.

5-Lug Pattern Torque Sequence
The lug bolt pattern torque sequence is a critical procedure designed to ensure that the wheel is mounted securely and uniformly on the vehicle's hub, preventing potential issues such as wheel vibration or hub damage. This sequence varies slightly depending on the number of lug bolts but always follows a pattern that promotes even distribution of force. When tightening lug nuts or bolts on a wheel with a 5-lug pattern, follow the torque sequence shown below to ensure even and secure tightening. The process usually involves multiple passes: initially tightening bolts to a lower torque setting to seat the wheel properly, followed by final tightening to the manufacturer's recommended torque specification using a calibrated torque wrench. Adhering to this sequence and using the correct torque ensures the wheel is balanced and securely attached, reducing the risk of brake rotor warping and ensuring the safety of the vehicle.
