2008 Dodge Nitro Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 2008 Dodge Nitro uses a 5x114.3 bolt pattern with a 71.6mm hub-centric center bore. The stock setup runs 16x6.5 wheels at a 40mm offset. You can upgrade to 17-inch wheels in widths from 6.5 to 9 inches, or stay with 16-inch options up to 8 inches wide—all non-staggered configurations work here.
Wheels must match the 5x114.3 bolt pattern; nothing else will fit your Nitro. Since the center bore measures 71.6mm, use hub-centric rings if your wheel's bore exceeds that diameter to ensure proper centering. Aggressive offsets or wider widths risk contact with fender and suspension components, so verify fitment before purchasing anything outside the compatible range.
