These are vehicle-year records whose recorded OEM ranges overlap this 2001 Dodge Neon. Overlap is not a guarantee that a specific wheel will install. Selected-wheel comparison is in the calculator below.
Evaluated 18 donor years. Listed 18 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 -3.18 mm, inner change -3.18 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.
Years grouped because recorded compatibility evidence is equivalent. Each year keeps its own page.
Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change 6.18 mm, inner change 0.17 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

Dataset suggestionHub-centric rings ≈ 67.1 → 57.1 mm – not a verified installation requirement.
Hub-centric rings of about 67.1 → 57.1 mm mm may be relevant if the wheel bore is larger than the hub; they cannot enlarge a smaller bore. Approximate position vs the mid OEM package: outer change 5.18 mm, inner change 1.17 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.
Only years with evidence-based interchange relationships are listed. Adjacent years are not assumed compatible.

Use the information below to evaluate replacement wheels and tires for a 2001 Dodge Neon. The listed specifications are the known OEM fitment data provided for this vehicle. Equipment can vary by trim, package, market, or prior modifications, so confirm the original wheel markings and the vehicle manufacturer's specifications before ordering.
| Specification | Known OEM value |
|---|---|
| Bolt pattern | 5x100, meaning 5 studs on a 100 mm pitch circle diameter |
| Center bore | 57.1 mm |
| Thread size | M12 x 1.5 |
| Rim diameter | 14 inches |
| Rim width | 5.5 inches |
| Wheel offset | ET40, or 40 mm positive offset |
| Backspacing | 4.32 inches |
| Known tire size | 185/65R14 |
| Tire section width | 185 mm |
| Tire aspect ratio | 65 percent |
| Tire rim diameter | 14 inches |
These values should be treated as a starting point rather than a substitute for checking the vehicle. Read the markings on the current wheel, inspect the door-jamb tire label, and consult an OEM service or parts source. The center bore, bolt pattern, offset, brake clearance, and tire load and speed ratings must all be correct.
Use the on-page calculator to compare Wheels from a donor vehicle with wheels being Installed on your 2001 Dodge Neon. Enter the donor vehicle and compare its bolt pattern, center bore, wheel dimensions, and other available measurements with the known Neon specifications above.
The calculator can show dimensional differences, but it cannot physically verify brake-caliper clearance, suspension clearance, fender clearance, wheel strength, or the condition of a used wheel. Confirm those items in person and follow OEM and tire-maker guidance.
The known OEM combination is a 14 x 5.5 inch wheel with ET40 offset and a 185/65R14 tire. No specific larger replacement size is confirmed here, so do not assume that a particular 15 or 16 inch wheel and tire combination will fit every 2001 Dodge Neon.
For plus sizing, use the calculator's custom wheel and tire fields to compare a proposed diameter, width, offset, and tire profile. The replacement tire should be checked for overall diameter, load capacity, speed rating, rim-width compatibility, and physical clearance. A wider tire can reduce clearance even when the overall diameter is similar. A lower-profile tire can also provide less impact protection for the wheel and a firmer ride.
If a wheel has a larger center bore than the vehicle hub, properly sized hub-centric rings may help center the wheel during installation when the wheel manufacturer permits their use. Rings do not correct a wrong bolt pattern, wrong offset, inadequate load rating, or insufficient brake clearance.
Useful equipment for a wheel change or fitment check includes a calibrated torque wrench, a properly sized socket, a jack and jack stands or an approved vehicle lift, wheel chocks, a tire pressure gauge, and a tread-depth gauge. Use the vehicle's approved lifting points and never work beneath a vehicle supported only by a jack.
What is the bolt pattern for a 2001 Dodge Neon?
The known bolt pattern is 5x100. The wheel must match this five-stud, 100 mm pattern. Do not rely on visual similarity when comparing wheels.
What is the center bore for the 2001 Dodge Neon?
The known center bore is 57.1 mm. A wheel with a smaller center bore will not fit over the hub. A larger bore may require correctly sized hub-centric rings, depending on the wheel design and manufacturer's instructions.
What is the factory wheel and tire size listed here?
The known OEM wheel is 14 x 5.5 inches with ET40 offset and 4.32 inches of backspacing. The known tire specification is 185/65R14. Confirm the exact equipment on the vehicle because trim and market variations are possible.
Can I use wheels from another vehicle?
Possibly, but the donor wheel must be checked for bolt pattern, center bore, offset, width, diameter, brake clearance, fastener compatibility, and load rating. Use the wheel interchange calculator to compare donor wheels with the Neon, then perform a physical clearance inspection.
Can I install a larger wheel diameter?
A larger diameter may be possible, but no specific larger size is confirmed here. Enter the proposed diameter, width, and offset in the calculator, then select a tire that maintains suitable overall diameter, load capacity, and clearance. Final approval requires checking the vehicle and wheel manufacturer information.
Are M12 x 1.5 lug nuts always interchangeable?
No. M12 x 1.5 identifies the thread size and pitch, but the nut seat shape, seating depth, shank design, and required engagement must also match the wheel. Confirm the correct fasteners with the wheel and vehicle manufacturers.
Do wheel spacers solve every fitment problem?
No. Spacers change wheel position and can reduce inner clearance, increase outer protrusion, and affect fastener engagement and vehicle dynamics. They do not correct a wrong bolt pattern, insufficient wheel load rating, or inadequate brake clearance. Use them only when approved for the application and installed according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Where can I confirm the final specifications?
Check the tire and loading label, markings cast or stamped into the current wheel, the vehicle owner's documentation, OEM service information, and the wheel and tire manufacturers' technical data. Compare those sources with the on-page calculator before purchasing.
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.
