Expert Buying Guide for 1994 Oldsmobile Bravada
For your 1994 Oldsmobile Bravada, the bolt pattern is 5x120.65mm with a center bore of 70.3mm. When selecting aftermarket wheels, ensure the center bore matches exactly or use hub-centric rings to prevent vibrations. The factory offset is 12mm; staying within ±5mm is recommended to avoid rubbing or clearance issues. Always use lug nuts with the correct thread pitch (12x1.50) and seat type (conical/60-degree taper) to ensure proper clamping force. Never use ball-seat lug nuts on this vehicle. Re-torque after 50-100 miles of driving.

Quick Tips & Safety Warnings
- ✅ Always use hub-centric rings if the aftermarket wheel center bore is larger than 70.3mm to avoid vibration and ensure proper load distribution.
- ✅ Stick to offset between 7mm and 17mm to maintain clearance from suspension and fenders; verify fitment with a test fit before mounting tires.
- ✅ Re-torque lug nuts to 100 ft-lbs after 50-100 miles of driving to account for wheel settling and prevent loosening.
- ⚠️ Verify thread pitch before installation; M12x1.25 and M12x1.5 are not interchangeable.
- ⚠️ Torque lugs in a star pattern to 80 ft-lbs (108 Nm), then re-check torque after 50-100 km (30-60 miles).
- ⚠️ This model has multiple bolt-pattern records across years. Match wheels to exact year/trim before purchase.
