These are vehicle-year records whose recorded OEM ranges overlap this 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan. Overlap is not a guarantee that a specific wheel will install. Selected-wheel comparison is in the calculator below.
Evaluated 43 donor years. Listed 24 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.
Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change -1.67 mm, inner change -4.68 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

The following values are the known fitment data available for this 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan. Some factory specifications can vary by trim, package, wheel, or brake configuration, so confirm the vehicle label and OEM documentation before purchasing.
| Specification | Known value |
|---|---|
| Bolt pattern | 5x127 |
| Center bore | 71.6 mm |
| Thread size | M12 x 1.5 |
| Rim diameter | 17 inches |
| Rim width | 7.0 inches |
| Wheel offset | ET40, or 40 mm |
| Backspacing | 5.07 inches |
| Tire section width | 225 mm |
| Tire aspect ratio | 65% |
| Tire rim diameter field | 16 inches, listed as R16 in the supplied data |
There is a diameter discrepancy in the supplied information: the wheel field lists a 17-inch rim, while the tire rim diameter field lists R16. Do not treat these as one confirmed wheel and tire package. Verify the actual tire sidewall, the driver's door-jamb certification label, the owner's manual, and OEM parts information for your specific Grand Caravan before ordering.
The listed tire fields correspond to a 225/65R16 format, but that does not resolve the separate 17-inch wheel entry. Use the calculator to compare dimensions, then confirm the correct application through the vehicle's OEM sources.
Use the calculator to compare a possible donor wheel with the wheel installed on your 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan. Enter the donor vehicle or donor wheel details under “Wheels from,” and enter the Grand Caravan details under “Installed on.”
Compare bolt pattern, center bore, wheel width, diameter, offset, and backspacing. A matching bolt pattern alone does not prove that a wheel will fit. The center bore, brake clearance, inner suspension clearance, outer fender clearance, and lug hardware must also be checked.
You can select “Custom wheel size” to adjust rim diameter, rim width, or offset. You can also enter a custom tire section width and aspect ratio. When rim diameter changes, the calculator updates the tire diameter in the comparison. Treat those results as dimensional guidance, not as a substitute for a physical test fit or OEM confirmation.
Pay close attention to the difference between overall tire diameter and the amount of wheel or tire moving inward or outward. A wheel that appears close in diameter may still contact a brake component, strut, suspension part, or fender.
Confirm the following before paying for a replacement or donor wheel:
Plus sizing changes the wheel diameter while generally aiming to maintain a similar overall tire diameter. It can change ride comfort, handling response, tire cost, wheel vulnerability, and speedometer behavior. A larger wheel also reduces tire sidewall height when overall diameter is held near the original value.
No specific plus-size package should be assumed from the supplied data because the 16-inch tire field and 17-inch rim field do not agree. Use the calculator's custom wheel and tire fields to compare candidate dimensions, then verify the result on the vehicle.
When evaluating an upgrade, compare overall tire diameter, section width, wheel offset, backspacing, load capacity, brake clearance, and fender clearance. Do not select a tire solely because its nominal diameter or width appears similar. The tire must also be approved for the rim width and must not contact the vehicle during steering, braking, or suspension movement.
Clean the hub face and wheel mounting surface before installation. Remove rust, dirt, and loose scale without removing metal from the hub or wheel. Make sure the wheel sits completely flat against the hub.
Install compatible lug hardware by hand first to avoid cross-threading. Tighten the lugs in a star or crisscross pattern, then torque them to the vehicle or wheel manufacturer's specified value. A torque value is not provided here, so use the owner's manual, an OEM service source, or the wheel manufacturer's instructions rather than guessing.
After installation, rotate each wheel by hand if safely supported and check for obvious contact. Lower the vehicle, recheck lug torque with a calibrated torque wrench, and inspect for contact after a cautious test drive. Recheck torque after the manufacturer's recommended initial driving interval.
Set tire pressure according to the vehicle certification label unless a qualified tire professional or OEM specification indicates otherwise. The pressure molded on the tire is a maximum reference and is not necessarily the vehicle's recommended operating pressure.
Useful supplies may include a calibrated torque wrench, correctly sized socket, jack and approved jack stands, wheel chocks, a tire-pressure gauge, a tread-depth gauge, a hub-cleaning brush, and a straightedge or clearance measuring tool.
Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Use level ground, engage the parking brake, chock the wheels, and follow the jack-stand points in the owner's manual. Shop automotive torque wrenches on Amazon.
Does a 5x127 wheel fit every 2008 Dodge Grand Caravan?
No. The 5x127 pattern is only one part of fitment. Center bore, offset, width, backspacing, brake clearance, lug seat, load rating, and tire size must also be correct.
What is the center bore listed for this Grand Caravan?
The supplied fitment data lists a 71.6 mm center bore. Confirm the vehicle hub and wheel bore before installation, especially when using aftermarket or used wheels.
What lug thread size is listed?
The known thread size is M12 x 1.5. Thread size does not identify the correct lug seat, so verify whether the wheel requires conical, spherical, or another seat design before buying lug nuts.
Is the correct wheel diameter 16 or 17 inches?
The supplied data lists a 17-inch rim diameter but also lists the tire rim diameter as R16. This is an unresolved discrepancy. Check the tire sidewall, door-jamb label, owner's manual, and OEM parts information for the specific vehicle and trim.
Can I install a wheel with a different offset?
A different offset may be possible, but it changes inner and outer clearance. Use the calculator to compare the custom offset and then perform a physical clearance check. Do not assume that a small numerical difference is safe without checking the brakes, suspension, and fenders.
Can a larger center-bore wheel be used?
A larger-bore wheel may require correctly sized hub-centric rings when suitable for the wheel and application. A smaller-bore wheel generally cannot pass over the vehicle hub. Rings do not correct an incorrect bolt pattern, offset, wheel load rating, or brake-clearance problem.
Does changing rim diameter change tire diameter?
Changing rim diameter requires a tire with a corresponding rim diameter. The calculator updates the tire diameter comparison when the rim diameter is changed, but you still need to verify the complete tire size, load rating, clearance, and OEM requirements.
Where should I confirm the final fitment?
Confirm the final choice with the driver's door-jamb label, owner's manual, OEM service or parts information, the wheel manufacturer, and a qualified tire professional. Use the on-page calculator as a comparison tool and not as the only approval for installation.
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.
