Anyone know the wheel bolt pattern and offset?

 

[HeyChris]

What, no poll? 🧐

I say 5x114.... et48-55.

The only thing we can know for sure at the present time is...they will be round. (I don't recall any of the "review" videos having any tire specs, but I could certainly have missed it)

That would be my guess, too. Was hoping someone might have seen the spec somewhere, and can confirm it.

I've looked e.g. discount tire, tire rack, but found nothing yet. Maybe some of the non-US markets have the manual/specs available for either the bZ4X or Solterra?

I found this at Discount Tire, 5-114.3 and maybe 45 mm offset.Tires are 235/60 R18. But not sure how reliable this is.

It’s most likely going to be the same wheel size bolt pattern like the Ascent which is currently the only 20 inch wheels on a Subaru model!

For an off-road branded vehicle, I will be disappointed if I can't get the tires with at least a 50% sidewall ratio. My former 2009 Legacy had a 45 ratio and I would occasionally bubble out the sidewall in an unavoidable pot hole.

I believe the 2021 Outback I am driving has a 60 ratio sidewall and it helps make the ride softer.

Less bling, more utility! Give me the option at least!

Except that it's actually a Toyota, from the manufacturing perspective. I doubt Toyota is going to be using Subaru parts (aside from the badges...).

I ordered the Limited, but have no desire for 20" wheels, so it's kind of a pain. I'll probably have to order some aftermarket 18's and just store the 20's for when I resell or something like that.
Either that or run 20" snow tires, which seems stupid. I live on and drive on dirt roads fairly frequently.

Where did you find that info?

Same bolt pattern as my 2021 Outback (don't know about the offset/inset).

Got a link? I cannot find the service manual. Only the owners manual.

You’ll need at least a $35 three day STIS access account to view the Service Manual.

There’s an online viewer — no reasonable way to download the whole document nor to print conveniently.

Most of the other Solterra docs don’t require an account to download.

Wondering if my aftermarket wheels and winter tires will bolt on from my 2019 forester. Down sized to 17” for winter

 

[R P]

Need to find out bolt pattern and offset.

Need to find out bolt pattern and offset.

Also, if your 17" rims will clear the brakes.

The Solterra has the same bolt pattern as our 2017 and 2021 Outbacks, but not the same as our 2011. I'm guessing the 2019 Forester would have the same bolt pattern as the 2015-2022 Outbacks, but the numbers will either match or they won't. Offset is another matter.

 

[Patrick]

My guess is no. Chances are 18" minimum to clear front calipers unless you find a very special 17" wheel.
I know on the Ascent, a very few 17's will clear. But my 18" snow tires also just barely clear.
