Expert Buying Guide for 2018 Ford Transit 250 Van
For your 2018 Ford Transit 250 Van, the bolt pattern is 5x160 with a 65.1mm center bore. Aftermarket wheels often have a larger center bore, requiring hub-centric rings to prevent vibration and ensure proper load distribution. The offset is critical: stock is around 60mm; deviations beyond ±5mm may cause rubbing or clearance issues. Always use the correct lug nuts: M14x2.0 thread pitch with a conical (60-degree) seat. Never use ball-seat lug nuts, as they can loosen. After installation, re-torque wheels after 50-100 miles. Verify that aftermarket wheels are load-rated for the van's GVWR.
