1999 Chevrolet Metro — Frequently Asked Questions
What is the bolt pattern for a 1999 Chevrolet Metro?

What other years of Chevrolet Metro have the same bolt pattern as the 1999?
The Chevrolet Metro uses the 4x100 pattern from 1998 through 2001. Wheels from any of these model years are dimensionally compatible with the 1999, provided the offset and center bore also match.
Why is matching the 54.1mm center bore important for the 1999 Metro?
The 54.1mm center bore ensures the wheel is perfectly centered on the hub. If the wheel is lug-centric instead of hub-centric, you may experience steering wheel vibration at highway speeds.
What lug nut size does the 1999 Chevrolet Metro use?
The 1999 Chevrolet Metro uses M12x1.25 lug nuts. Always verify the thread pitch and seat type (cone, ball, or flat) match your aftermarket wheels.
Will wheels from another Chevrolet fit my 1999 Metro?
Only if they share the exact same 4x100 bolt pattern, a compatible offset, and a center bore equal to or larger than 54.1mm.
What does 35-45mmmm offset mean for the 1999 Metro?
An offset of 35-45mmmm means the wheel's mounting surface is 35-45mmmm away from its centerline. Changing this value drastically can affect suspension geometry and wheel bearing wear on your Chevrolet.
