What other years of Ford Expedition have the same bolt pattern as the 2000?
The Ford Expedition uses the 5x135 pattern from 1997 through 2003. Wheels from any of these model years are dimensionally compatible with the 2000, provided the offset and center bore also match.
Why is matching the 87.1mm center bore important for the 2000 Expedition?
The 87.1mm 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.
