Expert Buying Guide for 2017 Ford Transit 250 Van
The 2017 Ford Transit 250 Van uses a 5x160 bolt pattern with a 65.1mm center bore. When selecting aftermarket wheels, ensure the center bore matches exactly or use hub-centric rings to prevent vibration and ensure proper load distribution. The offset is critical; the factory offset is 60mm. Deviating more than ±10mm can cause rubbing or clearance issues with suspension and brake components. Always use the correct lug nuts: 14x2.00 thread pitch with a conical (60-degree) seat. Flat or ball-seat nuts are unsafe and can lead to wheel loss. Re-torque after 50-100 miles of driving.
