What is the bolt pattern for a 1996 Dodge Viper?
The 1996 Dodge Viper uses a 6x114.3 bolt pattern (also called lug pattern or PCD). The center bore is 71.6mm and the offset is 50 front, 70 rearmm.
What other years of Dodge Viper have the same bolt pattern as the 1996?
The Dodge Viper uses the 6x114.3 pattern from 1992 through 2017. Wheels from any of these model years are dimensionally compatible with the 1996, provided the offset and center bore also match.
Why is matching the 71.6mm center bore important for the 1996 Viper?
The 71.6mm 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.

Only if they share the exact same 6x114.3 bolt pattern, a compatible offset, and a center bore equal to or larger than 71.6mm.
Can I use spacers on my 1996 Dodge Viper?
Yes, but ensure the wheel spacers match the 6x114.3 bolt pattern and 71.6mm center bore. Also verify that you have enough thread engagement for your N 1/2" (20 UNF) hardware.
