Recorded OEM specifications for the 2001 Dodge Caravan, donor years with overlapping ranges, and a calculator to compare a selected wheel. Range overlap is not a guaranteed fit.
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.
Center-bore records disagree: year-level hub 71.5 mm vs trim range 71.6–71.6 mm. Interchange below does not treat this as an unqualified match.

These are vehicle-year records whose recorded OEM ranges overlap this 2001 Dodge Caravan. Overlap is not a guarantee that a specific wheel will install. Selected-wheel comparison is in the calculator below.
Evaluated 23 donor years. Listed 23 eligible overlaps (not all evaluated years are compatible). Showing all listed.
Years grouped because recorded compatibility evidence is equivalent. Each year keeps its own page.
Center-bore records disagree (target year-level hub 71.5 mm vs trim range 71.6–71.6 mm). Unqualified overlap is not claimed until the conflict is resolved.

The details below reflect data available for the 2001 Dodge Caravan. Some values can vary by trim or option package. If a value is unknown for your exact van, confirm it against your door-jamb tire placard, owner’s manual, or with the on-page calculator paired with physical measurements.
| Spec | Value | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Bolt pattern | 5x114.3 | 5 lug holes on a 114.3 mm pitch circle |
| Center bore | 71.6 mm | Hub bore on the vehicle. Aftermarket wheels with a larger bore require hub-centric rings sized to 71.6 |
| Thread size | M12 x 1.5 | Verify lug seat style matches the wheel design |
| Wheel offset | ET 40 mm | OEM reference from a listed configuration. Offsets can vary by wheel option |
| Backspacing | 4.82 in | Derived from one OEM wheel configuration |
| Rim size | 17 x 6.5 in | Shown for at least one OEM or factory-option wheel. Not all trims used 17 inch wheels |
| Factory tire size | 215/70R15 | Indicates some trims used 15 inch wheels. There may have been multiple factory packages in 2001 |
Important: The presence of both a 17 inch wheel size and a 15 inch tire size indicates multiple factory packages across trims. Always verify your exact original equipment using your VIN, door-jamb sticker, and owner’s manual.
The available data shows both a 17 x 6.5 in wheel and a 215/70R15 tire were used on 2001 models depending on trim, which implies multiple factory size packages. Instead of assuming a specific upgrade path, use the following approach:
What is the bolt pattern on a 2001 Dodge Caravan?
5x114.3.
What is the center bore size?
71.6 mm on the vehicle hub. Use hub-centric rings if your wheel bore is larger.
My van has 215/70R15 tires. Can I install 17 inch wheels?
Possibly. Use the calculator to choose a 17 inch wheel and a matching tire size that keeps overall diameter close to your verified stock size. Confirm offset, inner clearance to brakes and struts, and outer fender clearance before buying.
Are 5x115 wheels compatible with 5x114.3 hubs?
No. 5x115 is not the same as 5x114.3. Mixing patterns is not recommended due to bolt-hole and stud alignment issues.
What is the OEM offset?
One listed OEM configuration shows ET 40 mm. Offsets can vary by wheel option. Use ET 40 mm as a reference and verify your exact trim against OEM documentation.
Do I need new lug nuts?
The thread size is M12 x 1.5. You may need different lug nuts if your new wheels use a different seat style. Always match the lug nut seat to the wheel design and torque to OEM spec.
Will I need spacers?
Only if required to clear brakes or struts due to wheel design. Spacers change effective offset and require proper stud engagement. Use the calculator to understand offset changes and verify hardware length if a spacer is used.
Disclaimer: Do not rely on a single data source for safety-critical dimensions. Confirm with your vehicle’s placard, the owner’s manual, and physical measurements, then validate choices with the calculator before purchasing or installing wheels and tires.
Wheel interchange depends on more than bolt pattern. Where data is available, this site compares recorded OEM values:
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.
