OEM wheel and tire fitment specs for the 2022 Chevrolet Colorado, including bolt pattern (PCD), center bore diameter, thread size, rim diameter, rim width, wheel offset, and backspacing.
2022 Chevrolet Colorado Fitment Specs
Baseline mounting dimensions used for interchange decisions.
Multiple OEM configurations exist for this vehicle. Fitment can vary by trim, brakes, and factory wheel package – confirm your exact setup before buying.
Wheels That Interchange With a 2022 Chevrolet Colorado
Results are evaluated from bolt pattern, center bore direction, OEM width/offset envelope, and lug hardware – not bolt pattern alone.
A normal wheel spacer does not change bolt pattern. Hub rings cannot enlarge a wheel bore that is smaller than the hub. Brake clearance and tire package fitment still require vehicle-specific checks when not confirmed in the dataset.

Note: The presence of a 17 inch rim size and a 16 inch tire size in the data indicates trim and package variation for 2022 Colorado. Some trims are equipped with 16 inch wheels and others with 17 inch wheels. Always verify the exact wheel and tire size on your vehicle’s tire label or by VIN, and use the calculator below to compare any changes.
How To Use The Wheel Interchange Calculator
Open the calculator and set Installed on (your vehicle) to 2022 Chevrolet Colorado.
Select Wheels from (donor vehicle) to compare another vehicle’s wheels, or leave it blank if you are testing a custom setup.
Use Custom wheel size to try different rim diameter, width, and offset values. As you change the rim diameter, the calculator will update the tire diameter in the comparison so you can see the impact.
Use Custom tire size to adjust section width and aspect ratio. Watch how this affects overall diameter and clearance relative to your current setup.
Review the comparison to understand:
Inner clearance change toward the suspension and brakes.
Outer position change toward the fender edge.
Overall tire diameter change that can influence speedometer and gearing.
If your current vehicle has 16 inch OEM wheels but you are testing 17 inch wheels, confirm brake caliper clearance and fender clearance virtually with the calculator, then verify physically before driving.
Fitment Checklist Before You Buy
Bolt pattern: Must match 6x120. Adapters change load paths and should be evaluated carefully if used.
Center bore: OEM is 66.9 mm. Aftermarket wheels with a larger bore should use hub-centric rings to 66.9 mm. Smaller bores will not fit.
Thread size: M14 x 1.5. Ensure lug nuts match seat style required by the wheel.
Offset and backspacing: Compare your candidate wheel to the OEM example of 17x8 ET33 5.3 in backspacing using the calculator to maintain safe inner clearance and avoid outer poke.
Brake and suspension clearance: Check spoke-to-caliper and barrel-to-caliper clearance. Test-fit whenever possible.
Tire overall diameter: Keep close to your OEM tire diameter shown on the door-jamb label to maintain speedometer and ABS behavior.
Load rating: Wheels and tires must meet or exceed the Colorado’s axle and GVWR requirements.
TPMS compatibility: Verify sensor type and frequency for 2022 Colorado if reusing or replacing sensors.
Spare tire: Ensure the spare can be mounted safely or plan for a compatible spare if you change sizes.
Plus Sizing And Common Upgrades
The 2022 Colorado can be found with both 16 inch and 17 inch OEM configurations depending on trim. Owners often consider plus sizing for style, brake clearance, or tire availability. Because factory sizes vary, there is no single upgrade that fits all trims.
Moving from 16 inch to 17 inch wheels: Use the calculator to maintain a similar overall tire diameter by adjusting tire aspect ratio, and compare inner and outer clearances against the OEM reference.
Wider wheels or tires: Check inner clearance to the strut, UCA, sway bar, and frame. Also check outer fender and mud flap clearance at full lock and compression.
Off-road oriented setups: If targeting more sidewall for airing down, evaluate 16 inch options only if they clear your brakes. Confirm with a physical test-fit.
Street-oriented setups: If targeting a larger wheel diameter, verify brake clearance, speedometer impact, and that the offset keeps scrub radius changes modest.
Always confirm your exact OEM size from the tire label or by VIN, then use that as the baseline in the calculator before finalizing a plus-size choice.
Installation Tips
Test-fit each wheel on the front and rear hubs before mounting tires to verify center bore engagement and caliper clearance.
Clean hub faces and wheel mounting pads to remove rust and debris. A clean, flat interface prevents vibration.
If using hub-centric rings to step down to 66.9 mm, seat them fully and squarely in the wheel bore.
Hand-thread M14 x 1.5 lug nuts to avoid cross-threading. Use the correct seat style for your wheel.
Tighten lugs in a star pattern with a calibrated torque wrench. Final torque should follow the value in your owner’s manual or OEM service information for your exact trim.
Re-torque lugs after 50 to 100 miles of driving on new wheels.
Perform a full lock-to-lock steering and suspension compression check to ensure no contact with fenders, liners, or control arms.

FAQs
Do all 2022 Chevrolet Colorado models use a 6x120 bolt pattern?
Yes. The OEM bolt pattern for 2022 Colorado is 6x120.
Is the OEM center bore 66.9 mm required for aftermarket wheels?
Aftermarket wheels can have a larger bore, but you should use hub-centric rings to step down to 66.9 mm for proper centering. Wheels with a smaller bore will not fit.
What is the OEM thread size for lug nuts?
M14 x 1.5. Match the seat type to your wheel, and use a torque wrench to the value specified in your owner’s manual or OEM service information.
Why do I see 17 inch wheels and 16 inch tires listed for the same model year?
Factory equipment varies by trim and package. Some 2022 Colorado trims were equipped with 16 inch wheels and others with 17 inch wheels. Verify your vehicle’s exact size from the door-jamb tire label or by VIN, then use the calculator to compare any potential changes.
Will wheels from another Chevrolet fit my 2022 Colorado?
Use the calculator’s Wheels from (donor vehicle) to compare. The donor wheels must match key specs such as 6x120 bolt pattern, adequate center bore or rings to 66.9 mm, suitable offset/backspacing, and brake clearance. Always test-fit before driving.
Can I run 5x120 or 6x139.7 wheels with adapters?
Adapters change load paths and clearances. For safety, match 6x120 directly whenever possible. If considering adapters, verify stud engagement, hub-centric support, and full clearance very carefully.
What offset should I choose when upsizing?
There is no single value that works for every tire and wheel combination. Start from the OEM example of 17x8 ET33 and use the calculator to compare inner and outer position against your baseline. Confirm clearance at the brakes, suspension, and fenders.
Will changing tire size affect my speedometer?
Yes, altering overall tire diameter changes indicated speed and odometer readings. Use the calculator to see diameter change and choose a size that keeps the overall diameter close to your OEM reference.
