These are vehicle-year records whose recorded OEM ranges overlap this 2011 Ford Flex. Overlap is not a guarantee that a specific wheel will install. Selected-wheel comparison is in the calculator below.
Evaluated 26 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 -1.17 mm, inner change -5.18 mm. This uses aggregated width/offset ranges, not a specific wheel.

Center-bore records disagree (donor year-level hub 63.3 mm vs trim range 63.4–63.4 mm). Unqualified overlap is not claimed until the conflict is resolved. 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.

The following specifications are the known OEM fitment values provided for the 2011 Ford Flex. These figures may vary by trim, package, wheel style, or market, so confirm the information on the vehicle, in the owner’s manual, or through Ford service documentation before purchasing wheels or tires.
| Specification | Known value |
|---|---|
| Bolt pattern | 5x114.3 |
| Center bore | 63.4 mm |
| Thread size | M12 x 1.5 |
| Rim diameter | 18 inches |
| Rim width | 7.5 inches |
| Wheel offset | ET39 |
| Backspacing | 5.29 inches |
| Tire size information | 235/60R18 |
In this tire notation, 235 is the tire section width in millimeters, 60 is the aspect ratio, and R18 indicates a radial tire designed for an 18-inch rim. Bolt pattern, center bore, offset, brake clearance, wheel width, and tire load and speed ratings all matter when checking replacement fitment.
The known data above does not establish that every 5x114.3 wheel will fit. A replacement wheel must also clear the brakes and suspension, use a suitable center bore, provide the correct fastener seat, and maintain safe tire clearance. Use the calculator below for a comparison, then verify final specifications with OEM or wheel-manufacturer documentation.
Use the wheel interchange calculator to compare a donor vehicle's wheels with the wheels installed on your 2011 Ford Flex.
Changing the custom rim diameter updates the tire diameter in the comparison. This is useful when evaluating a plus-size setup, but the calculator cannot replace a physical clearance check or confirmation of brake, suspension, and load-rating requirements.
A calculator result should be treated as a screening tool. Before ordering, confirm the exact wheel part number, wheel load rating, center bore, offset, lug-seat design, and tire specifications from the manufacturer or an OEM source.
If any specification is missing from a seller's listing, ask for the stamped or published wheel dimensions before purchasing. Do not assume that a wheel from another Ford vehicle, or from any other vehicle with the same bolt pattern, is automatically compatible.
Plus sizing generally means using a larger wheel diameter with a lower-profile tire while attempting to maintain a similar overall tire diameter. It can change steering response, ride comfort, wheel protection, tire cost, and the risk of damage from potholes.
The known reference tire for this page is 235/60R18 on an 18x7.5 wheel with ET39. If you test another diameter, width, offset, or tire size in the calculator, compare the resulting tire diameter and wheel position with the known reference. The calculator can show dimensional differences, but it cannot confirm every physical clearance or the legal and safety suitability of a specific combination.
Do not select a lower-profile tire solely because it fits the rim. Confirm the tire's approved rim-width range, load index, speed rating, inflation requirements, and clearance. A different wheel width or offset may also change scrub radius and steering behavior.
Useful equipment for a careful wheel installation can include a properly rated floor jack, jack stands, wheel chocks, a torque wrench, a socket set that matches the lug nuts, and a reliable tire-pressure gauge.
Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Follow the safety instructions for every tool, and use lifting points identified by Ford documentation.
What is the bolt pattern for the 2011 Ford Flex?
The known bolt pattern is 5x114.3. Confirm the exact vehicle and wheel application before purchase because bolt pattern alone does not prove full fitment.
What is the center bore for the 2011 Ford Flex?
The known center bore is 63.4 mm. A wheel with a larger bore may require correctly specified hub-centric rings, while a wheel with a smaller bore will not seat over the hub without proper machining by a qualified professional.
What is the stock wheel and tire information provided for this page?
The known reference is an 18x7.5 wheel with ET39 offset, 5.29-inch backspacing, and a 235/60R18 tire. These values should be checked against the vehicle's trim, installed equipment, and OEM documentation.
Do all 5x114.3 wheels fit a 2011 Ford Flex?
No. A matching bolt pattern is only one requirement. Center bore, offset, rim width, brake clearance, wheel load rating, lug-seat design, and tire specifications must also be compatible.
Can I use the calculator to test a different wheel size?
Yes. Use “Custom wheel size” to enter rim diameter, width, and offset, and use “Custom tire size” to enter section width and aspect ratio. Changing rim diameter updates the tire diameter in the comparison. Confirm the final setup with manufacturer data and a physical clearance check.
Can I use the known M12 x 1.5 thread size with any lug nuts?
No. The thread size is M12 x 1.5, but the lug nut's seat type, length, diameter, and wheel compatibility must also match. Use the lug hardware specified for the exact wheel.
How do I confirm the correct lug torque?
Use the torque specification in the Ford owner’s manual or service information for the specific vehicle and hardware. If the replacement wheel manufacturer provides additional instructions, follow the applicable manufacturer guidance.
What should I do if the calculator does not show a required specification?
Do not guess. Contact the wheel manufacturer or seller for the complete technical drawing or specifications, and compare them with Ford OEM documentation. A missing value should be treated as unverified until confirmed.
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.
